When Love Takes Flight

Of all fond thoughts held deep within the heart			
Like strings lightly strummed fly with agile wings			
Take flight yet never from my mind depart				
Soar as wandering clouds where angels sing				
Thrilling depths unknown and conscious thriving
			
Meant for few who’ve neutered malice thinking			
Free of hate and void of carnal striving				
Loosed from the pull of gravity’s sinking				
Launched to heights reserved near omnipotence			
God is there, since love is His personage
				
Displayed, arrayed in great magnificence				
Building a home of divine parsonage					
Forever to reign in heaven’s glory					
Love is the wind and might of the story
