Poem of the Week CXXXIV

Thanks to Frog's Hair,

from To Live of Love
Saint Terese of Lisieux

6.
To live of love, it is to know no fear;
No memory of past faults can I recall;
No imprint of my sins remaineth here;
The fire of Love divine effaces all.
O sacred flames! O furnace of delight!
I sing my safe sweet happiness to prove.
In these mild fires I dwell by day, by night.
I live of love!
