GRÁ (MORE ROBUST THAN LOVE)

Grá

An Irish word 

For the English word

Love

But much more vigorous 

The creator’s thumping in the chest

The blood pumping from the heart

Grá is who we are

More than what we think

Or what we believe

What wealth or poverty we eventually leave

Grá waves the baton of our freed up soul’s song

Drives us out from within

Pulls back in

The pushing out of sin 

Fuels the heat that ignites

Conducts the lights we shine

Eye balls all the hours of the night behind 

Grá is half the letters of grace

But twice the speed in any worthwhile race

God is Grá and sees its essence in who we are

At our most spectacular.
