U’s of  U’s

they say
it is not possible
    to be
all things
             to all
people

they

don’t know

                         you…

in touching

                          you

I’ve learned

truth

compassion

kindness

caring

devotion

love


not easy to give
sometimes less easy to
get

but you added

elements

to all of the above

first, you added

                                unconditional….

so now I stand

absolute in your light
no restrictions to what I
might give back

it is unreserved, and
unconditional…

but then you did one more
thing….

you tied it up, presented it
all….

with

                                understanding…

unconditional understanding….

so, naked of all
pretense
to stand before you,
come I,
in this light,
will you please accept

mine….

that, and all that I might give you

                        till the end of time.

Contractual, you know ... enforceable.
Wonderful passion in these words.  Why am I the first to comment?

Unconditional understanding...PERFECT!  Much easier to give than to get, unfortunately.  A good write and much appreciated.  Thanks!
