Ifunanya


Here's to one of my cryptic friends....

He said ‘If there is ever anything called love,  don’t  tell me you feel it, perceive it, sense it or see it….DO IT”
He was not alone in his thinking
And I thought to myself
Doesn’t he SEE it?
Doesn’t he FEEL it?
A mother’s love for her child
Her need to see to see her child fed and comforted supercedes hers
Her desire to see him prosper
And her unwavering decision to trade her life for his if need be
Doesn’t he hear it?
In the voice of a woman mourning her husband,
Her anchor in the past years
Her shield in the hardships of daily events
Doesn’t he DO it?
In the prayers offered for the survival of a friend?
To see the pain leave his weary body
Everywhere we turn to, we see love
It can be seen, it can be felt, it can be touched
But most importantly, it can be DONE.
If still not convinced,
Look to the skies and ponder on God’s infinite Love for man
For indeed that is the Totality of Love.
