Mould it into man He said. <br />Mould it into food and water. <br />Squeeze it, make a dark hole in time. <br />Stretch it across the universal expanse. <br />Make from it the very space <br />that is home to all its forms. <br />Concentrate it in a smile. <br />In potent strength let it bind <br />all mothers to their child. <br />Let it be the centre <br />of all that will ever be. <br />And when man finds it within himself <br />let it reveal the earth and heavens <br />and all beings that do dwell therein <br />as one family, living in eternal harmony. <br />That is what it is; universal love, <br />and its companion, indescribable bliss.<br /><br />David Taylor<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-s-companion/
