Another Question

Sometimes, when I am lonely
Bitterness entreats me to look upon my life in regret
To see falsely the majesty of love
Diminished by petty jealousy and pride
As an injustice
It is, however, loves nature to diminish.
Love is the spark of a distant fire
Glimpsed at in the onset of an indomitable mist
The spark lingers, and then dies.
The fire is lost.
In loneliness, the heat of the fire
Burns too hot
I hide my face from its touch
Its light casts a shadow of insecurity
Over me
In truth, love is a well
Desiccated
Waiting to be filled by the breath of God
To know love on the earthly plane
Is to know the torpor of its awakening
The fear of its captivity
And to what depths it would rise
To be free from the constraint
Of the heart

You say some very ***** profound things in this. That is truly inspiring. Some of those lines...WOW!
Unfortunately, apparently I am too dimwitted to see the correlation between human and canine....unless somewhere buried in there is the unsurpassed, as they say, "unconditional" love of the dog for its human.
Thanks,
Tim
