Love Will Show Us

In spite of us
Love will continue
to bless
and shine
into every opening,
and onto asphalt,
metal
and steel.

Love will blanket
tight fists
stiff bodies
clamped jaws
clenched minds,
all the barbs and thorns.

Love’s Light
will illumine
the pain
in our world,
show us
the wounds that need us.
