One Man


One man knows he is loved —
how does that make him feel
as he walks on the gravel road
or the sun-touched banks of the river?

One man knows he is loved —
what difference can that make?
— All the difference to him
as he walks the paths of his life

How can he know he is loved?
That is the ponderous question,
but what’s clear is that, once he knows it,
the world rests serene in his hand.
