“I give you a new commandment,
that you love one another.”
—John 13.34
There is no creed but this,
no sacrament, no other mark.
And there is no act of God,
no answered prayer, but this.
That I may love more fully,
I am loved.
For all my failure,
I am loved.
Only in imaginary worlds
are there other laws.
Only in my most deluded fears
would I hide from gravity itself.
That I may love as I have been loved
is my life-long ripening.
