A Love Like This Poem by Grant House

A Love Like This



In the face of unspeakable tragedy,
of terror and loss,
love wakes us up from indifference.
Love educates the soul and makes us whole.
Love brings us together to declare what we know in our hearts is true;
that love is love no matter who.
Instead of quick reaction,
love heals and moves us to effective action.
Standing side by side,
rainbow fabric of every hue,
we find unity.
Let's you and I ask as a community,
How can we love enough?
and of ourselves as individuals,
How can I love enough?
Hate, injustice, and evil have no power.
They wilt and cower
in the presence of a love like this!
