Love beauty, which is God's shadow across the universe.

There is no atheist art. Even if you do not love the Creator, you will affirm him, creating in his likeness.

Little feet of children,
two tiny suffering jewels,
how can people pass
and not see you!

Now in the middle of my days I glean
this truth that has a flower's freshness:
life is the gold and sweetness of wheat,
hate is brief and love immense.
