_To Doubt You_

To doubt You
 is to doubt the blue of the sky the softness of a rose-petal the innocence
of a new-born babe

To deny You
 is to deny the light of a billion suns The dual reality of an electron’s
path The spurt of pain-induced growth

To love You
 is to love with the ease of Snowflakes melting in the sun Flowers baring
their heart to bees Fall leaves floating to the earth
