Very Essence
"Is not general incivility
the very essence of love,"
Jane Austen said.
Judging from our God's
Plan of Salvation
for us,
I must say he has
a very great love, indeed.
I hope
our God
is able to discern
the depth of
my love for Him
and my brethren
when I begin to giggle
on Judgment Day.
Such incivility
was always successful
for Jane's characters.
John Hardy
I love John's poem too. I've had a glimpse of what a parent goes through when they lose a child because we witnessed a fatal accident and have been in contact with the young man's parents. My compassion has been compounded ten-fold.
