Love Trumps Fear

QUOTE

To fear is to expect punishment. To love is to know that we are immersed not in darkness but in light.

~Mother Teresa

Love Trumps Fear
 
Living under thunder clouds
When the only intermittent light
Are the streaks that create the blast
Of the thunder's perceived might
 
Waiting under the covers
Or maybe in the cellars where we flee
Hoping the clouds don't find their fury
Throwing funnel clouds a me
 
Expecting the worse
We sometimes cower
Knowing what was sweet
Has turned sour
 
Love has been known to buffer
Whatever fear holds you at bay
The strength of love like sunshine's power
Is enough to chase the clouds away
 
Marian
