On the dawn of creation
As god opened its eyes
Overwhelmed with momentum
That breathed forth as life
A feeling was born
That would forever be known
As love

In moments of minutes the
Hours and days and years
Becoming centuries into
Millennia of eons of time
This feeling of love
Would never diminish

The very essence of all
That was and is and will be
The power it held and holds
Dear to its heart and mind and soul

And we’ve tried to describe it
with words and in song
we’ve tried to paint it
with canvas and film
every rendition more
beautiful than ever before

it brings our smile
it brings our tears
creates its own longing
its need to feel and to touch
fueling itself
it is flesh upon flesh
of humanness

a blending of spirit
into the mass
forming of bones and blood
and muscle and skin
a living breathing
temple of worship
awarding the senses
to touch this love

*touch*
