Realizing LOVE

my lovely Love

Summer’s gone

The heat’s blasting

The morning’s dim

I wake up thinking

This is mean.

I slip from warm cocoon of down

Feeling chill on flannel-covered arms

Who loves you? 

A voice calls.

Hmm…  I have heat. I have shelter. I have safety.

I am Sue, the beloved of Justin, Jien-Shie, Roger, Noah, Jonah, Barbara, Jessica, Cheryl, Amy, Christine, Tinling, Bonnie, Cathy, Angela, Alex, Kristin, Nancys, Judi, Melissa, George, Geoffrey, David, Bert, Beverly, Irma, Liz, Ellen, Joni, Denise…

The list goes on and grows as I type (!).  I love them all too.

Plus, I love the sun, moon, air, trees, ocean, the Big Sky, the Divine.  I love that I get to wake up and have another go at making lives better.

I even love the guy who debates a friend and me to all of our exhaustion on Facebook. A guy who struggles with the other side while I struggle with his one-sidedness.  Because he is willing to struggle.

So, fill in the blanks.  See if it warms you up.  It did for me.

I am __________________, the beloved of _________________________.

I love ________________________________________________________.
