Love’s Wonder

Tell me who you love
I’ll tell you who you are.
Show me what irks you
I’ll show you how you are.
Point to me where it hurts
I’ll point you to what works.

Love and hurt are a balance
tipped by nature or error.
Values are nature’s mirror
reflecting beauty or horror.

Love is hurt’s answer
fading bitter with better.
lighting life’s skies with ardor’s
stars shining with wonder.
