Dreams Fulfilled, As a Harvest in an Orchard

When the joy falls like rain
As you walk gently forward
You know the single fact
You've fallen in love
And there you will remain
Dreams full, like harvest in an orchard
To sip from the divine chalice
You drink and it remains filled
A heart having a hope attack
And all you have is enough
For there is a mystery
Of how to be fulfilled
By giving and trusting
The more you love
The more you are able to love
It goes beyond sex and the tactile touch
There is something deeper inside
Than can be understood
And never described
The joy washes over you
This is the life you wanted to live
As you realize it is true
There is nothing greater
Than to love another
Not only lust, but an innocent trust
That only a heart in love can give


Matthew 9:37-38 ESV 

Then he said to his disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the laborers are few; therefore pray earnestly to the Lord of the harvest to send out laborers into his harvest.”
