If I Were Your Love
Hear my candid response
to your query I am glad to answer:
"Would you love me if I wasn't a poet?"
For sure, I would...
whether you're a poet, or not
I love you, and will always will.
May I remind you that my love for you is forever...
ceaseless and unconditional
since such is my nature, my attribute sublime.
Let's feast on our loving relationship with each other...
while I acknowledge your love for me
you freely expressed through this poem of yours:
If I were Your love, and that's true indeed
my devotion is Yours in word and deed
as I stay safely secured in Your heart*
You're my God Who keeps on meeting my need.
Since You have loved me from the very start
from Your blest plan … never will I depart
while soaring toward faith-propelled ventures
vanquishing attacks of unbelief's dart.
You love me as I am based on Scriptures
guiding me with sovereign wisdom-features
thus, I cling to You with grateful delight
trusting You while Holy Spirit nurtures.
With Your love* around compassionate might
let me share Your kindness along peace-light
reaching-out, and sowing Your Gospel seed
marked by loving goodness of caring height.
*John 15:10 …Abide in my love; even as I have kept my Father's commandments, and abide in his love.
