The mind set free
turns naturally
to love —
Love’s expansive joy,
love’s boundless curiosity,
love’s keen attention to each fine detail,
each grand connection
The loops that chain the mind
hem love in, too —
The criticism, and the painful weight
of envy and comparison and judging
But they can’t stand
when love expands —
It breaks their loops
with sheer exuberance
And fills the heart with light
and sets the mind to flight
across the infinite and still unfolding realm
that is its home
when love is at the helm.
