Love Me With All Your Heart…

Love me with all your heart and soul and mind...

But I can’t see You...

Not like the tide, a warm smile, a trillium in May, a canyon, 

Love me with all your heart and soul and mind 

But I can’t hear you...

Not like my wife’s laugh, the family gathering at a table, a distant train, a stream

Love me with all your heart and soul and mind 

But I can’t feel you...

Not like the warmth of a fire, the comfort of a pillow, a ride on my bike, my wife’s small hand...

Love me with all your heart and soul and mind 

But I can’t smell you...

Not like the forest after rain, a meal when you come through the door, a fall morning, coffee....

Love me with all your heart and soul and mind 

But I don’t know you. Not like all these things that are so real to me

Yet you’re there aren’t you .... that’s what you tell me ...in all these things..always...

But where though... where exactly to know...

To really see, hear, feel,smell and know You

So I can love you with all my heart and soul and mind...like you ask me too...

I really don’t know how to do that...
