Stars

There is no death! the stars go down
To rise upon some other shore,
And bright in Heaven’s jeweled crown,
They shine for ever more.
-John L. McCreery-

Christ has no body now but yours
No hands, no feet on earth but yours
Yours are the eyes through which He looks compassion on this world
Christ has no body now on earth but yours.
-Teresa of Avila-

There is no love.
There’s only love of men and women, love
Of children, love of friends, of men, of God:
Divine love, human love, parental love,
Roughly discriminated for the rough.
-Robert Frost-
