Unconditional Love
seems like a monumental feat
requiring the sacrifice of the ego
offering the totality of one’s self
at the foot of the altar.
No wonder the gates
to unconditional love
have not been flung wide open
by masses of humans
rushing to gain entrance
in hopes of attaining
this spiritual badge of the heart.
And yet. . .
’tis such an easy path
when taken one step at a time.
Simple acts of kindness
Listening with an open heart
Offering a hand where needed
Smiling without a reason to smile
Giving up the need to be right
Honoring each other’s path without judgment
These are all simple tasks
each of us can engage in
these are the footsteps
of Unconditional Love
that leave a trail behind us
amidst the bleakness
of a world that’s gone asunder.
This is Unconditional Love, pure and simple.
