Who can say best the form that love comes in,
is beauty it that forms love at first sight,
or good that grows the opposite of sin,
or faithful truth, a lover's true delight?
Love does love virtue mostly as a nest,
as love's form flows more from our hearts when true,
though written words or spoken would seem best,
our thoughts and words one oft can misconstrue.
Love's form is most discovered in one's eyes,
sketched by a child turned to a mother's face,
or by some nun, a mother in disguise,
spooning rice to a hungry child with grace.
God shows us love's form more than anyone,
to give for love of us His only Son.
