“God is love, and whoever abides in love abides in God, and God abides in him.” (1 John 4:16)
You don’t fall out of love
Like a cradle
When the wind blows
And the bough breaks.
Love is in the broken bough,
the blowing wind,
the falling cradle.
Love lives in us
When we live in love
We live in the hands of the cradle-maker,
the breath of the blowing wind,
the heart of the broken bough.
