"No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the Continent, a part of the main; if a Clod be washed away by the Sea, Europe is the less, as well as if a Promontory were, as well as if a Manor of thy friends or of thine own were; any man's death diminishes me, because I am involved in Mankind; And therefore never send to know for whom the bell tolls; It tolls for thee." - John Donne

...wait...
We live in hidden Love.
It has been eclipsed,
And the world is dark,
Cold, grievous, stark
Full of the deafening echos
Of pain.
But when the shadow has passed
And Love is revealed,
It will blind our earth eyes
Burn through the doubt, the lies
And leave only the holy sound
Of His Name.
And we will see what was there, all along.
With the light of true love - Clear, Pure, Just, Strong!

Encouraging words of hope for a world waiting for full redemption! I especially enjoyed the second stanza - when God is revealed in all His glory we will be blinded to everything but Him. Loved your way of explaining it.
I like how you describe the precious value of spiritual love beyond earthly passions! For now, our full understanding of this love has been "eclipsed"! Great thoughts!
I like the way the eclipse picture resembles an eye watching us. Thought provoking post.
So strong and so true. Thank you for this beautiful poem about God's love. It lifted me.
