Miracles love whispers

I will not trade miracles for grievances.
I want only what belongs to me
God has establised miracles as my right.

Ask for them whenever a sitaution arises
in which they are called for
You will recognize these situations
And since you are not relying on
yourself to find the miracle
you are fully entitled to receive it
whenever you ask.

I am the light of the world
Forgiveness is my function as the
light of the world.

**************************************************

On a day for dalliance we read the rhyme
of Lancelot, how love had mastered him.
WE were alone with innocence and dim time.

Pause after pause that high old story dew
our eyes together while we blushed and paled;
but it was one soft passage overthrew

our caution and our hearts. For when we read
how her fond smile was kissed by such a lover,
he who is one with me alive and dead

breathed on my lips the tremor of his kiss.
That book, and he who wrote it, was pander.
That day we read no further.

The Inferno, Canto V in 'The Divine Comedy.'

    I forgot to mention and give credit where
    it's due, as that poem isn't mine!!!
    Sorry!!!
    Just a little thing I liked in a book about love.
    It didn't have an author.
    Can't take the credit on that, but it's for you anyway.
    It is a sweet poem though isn't it?

    I am now willing to accept the most secretist desire of my heart, the love who is sometimes shaped like a chocolate bunny who will only let me eat him and no one else..the one who sings the pretty songs on the radio in my head
    and in my heart
    and in my dreams
    and in my car
    and in my hands
    and in my womb
    and mostly inside me
    all the time is where you need to be

    the one that no one else but my son ever really believed was mine. the one that has been telling me stories about us between my lines

    now can you bring him between my thighs because it's your grace that speads me open, he is my johnny appleseed monkey man.



    this is me whispering to you, i hope it doesn't make you run the other way, and if so, that's oookkk.
  • Yep. 'Tis Dante.

    Amaterasu,
    This appears to be quoted from the John Cairdi translation, no?
