You Shall Love

 

Love does not originate

From the human heart

It’s divine here I can stipulate

And has been from the start

The act of love made in creation

Sprang from the divine

Universal in its intention

Eternal love would shine

 

If we could hear and we could feel

That would broaden our perceptions

Everyone's neighbor would become so real

That we should love them without exceptions

Such a choice would make our world alive

Filled with love's expanding opportunities

Each and all would finally thrive

In our diversity and our unity

 

If we perceive love as our invention

Something exclusive and just human

It's time to fulfill our love's intention

Find our neighbors and pursue them

Eliminate the I and It

As Buber would have us choose

The I and Thou are a better fit

We have nothing there to lose

 

Even if God we have abandoned

We can still listen to these words

Make of them each day's companion

They'll change our lives when heard
