Let God Love

Let God Love

A Poem by John Anderson

I don't swim with shallow loves -
won't fake love and neglect
I give benefit of doubt
before my heart rejects

I hate to upset anyone -
with bitter, won't infect
not into biology -
no one, will I dissect

I try to love with all my heart -
sincerely, I reflect
I am not a Love 'expert' -
not my place to correct

Got no master's degree in Love -
not fit to Love inspect
if running for Love's Hall of Fame,
let someone else elect

Won't be the one to pick and chose -
let Renowned Love select
the Holy Father loves enough -
to Him, Love acts, erect

There, alone, is just one Lord -
up to Him to perfect
let His Love finish His Work -
it's God Who resurrects

Then if it's God given or God like love, wouldn't it be committed, powerful, and last forever?

No other love has been so unconditional. Love expressed beyond the emotional. Humble and sincere from a child of God.
