“Love of Friends”

No more counterfeit
after feeling this love
no other thing
will fool me

Love
freely given
without words
deeply known
no question

Disciples
by their love
showing me
the heart of Jesus

Where does creativity come from
How does it grow

Out of love
First Love from Him
encouraged by
friends: the wind that carries my flight
