Connect

Above my head two lines zoom into space

Like laser beams across eternity;

Where these lines of congruence embrace

I stand entire, a perfect tiny me

Centre of the universe, the one

Around whom everything that is revolves;

But looking up, I see the lines have grown

Ever wider until all dissolves

Far beyond the limits of my mind.

How strange that I can know that even there,

Immense and enigmatic, I can find

A Love that penetrates my heart, to share

          With all I meet, despite my selfish whims

          And all the limitations that life brings.
