When We Sing of Love

When we sing of love

do we not disturb the bitter sleep

of those that live without its grace?

Let them sing with us,

dance along side us

in our colorful parade

shouting, "Here's comes love!"

as they lift us upon their shoulders

in celebration of a joy 

that touches all hearts.

So deliver your song boldly,

rattle the windows with your proclamations

so that all my share in the gift of love!

inspired by and dedicated to paul and loralee
