CROSS STITCH


All mortals are waiting for love –
Not just the ageing aunts –
Not just the slow and awkward ones
Waiting to learn the dance.

Loneliness is exceptionless –
Even the Beauties wince –
Even the fair and handsome sons
Cry like the Little Prince.

But thanks to the Lord’s Redemption
Love is not Tragedy –
Love is not envy, fear, or woe –
It’s Divine Comedy.
