Love's Surprise

 

 

Looking for an opportunity to heal?

 

Try having an intimate relationship.

 

Rest assured –

 

It will unearth any wound you have.

 

 

Disconcerting?  Perhaps.

 

  Has something gone awry?

 

 Have you made a big mistake?

 

 Is this some cruel joke?

 

 

Not to worry. 

 

Just relationship doing its thing: 

 

Inviting us to face ourselves,

 

Inviting us to grow.

 

Maybe not what we signed up for,

 

But richer in the end. 

 

Unexpected bounty -

 

Love's surprise.
