As the great clouds of
the thunderstorm pass,
as the great winds die down
and the earth once again cools,

a change falls over some.
The knowledge of love,
the fact that it is there,
that it is everywhere.

love is everything, in,
everyone, in, us, them, all.
and it is love, such an
encompassing word,

such an emotion, deed,
thought, surge.
the power of an eagle,
the deepness of the ocean

it drives us,
it fills us,
it keeps us moving,
it keeps us fighting.

Love has many forms,
for it is all,
and we, for love,
for the belief of love,

would lay down our lives,
for the one that we love.

James O. Stewart
