No questions sidle up  
or judgments alter love
that from a timeless sky
burns freckles on a mind.

Freckles light don’t weigh a ton
but how the body aches
when kicked and punched
to recognize
something’s going on
the face of a belief.

And when a glint of steel
changes to a sparkling tear
the freckles grow and multiply
haphazardly it seems
on one unused to love.

I have a freckle here, just here,
covered now and barely seen
but this the parent freckle
of you and I combined
that birthed a different view of…
the origin of freckles;
love is just too deep
for limiting beliefs!
