Gospel: A Love Manifesto Poem
What is the gospel
I will proclaim
To the ends of the earth?
What is it that I will
Share with everyone I meet?
I will give them the words
And deeds of love,
Of kindness,
And respect.
But first
I will start with myself,
Speaking inner words
Of compassion,
Encouragement,
And grace.
I will shower
Myself with care
And affirmation,
Strong in my identity.
Then I will love others
With my deepest
Affection and
Most intense effort.
I will shine this light
Until all of those around me
Are brightened and
Feel valued,
Like they deserve,
Like I deserve.
My love will spread,
It will ripple through with waves
Into waters
beyond my knowledge.
What I can see
I will smile at with pride
Knowing I am
Living out
the most sacred purpose.
