Title Quote: A Course In Miracles
Teach Only Love
To those closest to you
Family is a learning core
Of bringing love through
Teach Only Love
To friends both far and near
Love is the strongest connection
Give it to all, who you hold dear
Teach Only Love
To all the children you meet
The future of our world
Lies always at their feet
Teach Only Love
To each stranger passing by
Just a friendly greeting and smile
Can uplift a spirit so high
Teach Only Love
To all your colleagues at work
Kindness will soothe and ease
Even those who seem to irk
Teach Only Love
To all those who’ve done wrong
Forgiveness and compassion
Will guide their steps along
Teach Only Love
To all animals of land, sea and air
No matter what the type
Creatures of God deserve your care
Teach Only Love
To trees, plants and flowers
Nurturing nature enhances life
Bringing many blessing showers
Teach Only Love
To all landscapes of planet Earth
Appreciate all the aspects
And know its true worth
Teach Only Love
In your ideas of cosmic life
One day we will all meet
And it is love we want, not strife
Teach Only Love
For the law of attraction will bring
Your thoughts and beliefs to manifest
Creating your world and everything
Teach Only Love
It is by example you go far
In teaching the love of God
For that is truly what you are

About This Poem
As you can see I wrote this poem yesterday, I have been meaning to write a ‘quote’ poem for a very long time now, so yesterday I decided to get on with it! I had a short-list of quotes to choose from and two jumped out at me, both from A Course In Miracles: Teach Only Love For That Is What You Are & You Are The Light Of The World (I will post this tomorrow).
I wrote the poems in my usual way, this one first, and thought of posting it yesterday, but I didn’t have a picture made to go with it, so rather than rush to do this, I chose to leave it till today. So, this morning I began to think of what I could write about for this poem, but I had no idea!
With that on my mind I began to check through my emails, and one was of a post by Amira, a Haiku poem called Space, on reading, I thought of what great timing this was (law of attraction) as my poem had a verse about cosmic life and it has been on my mind to write some poems soon on this topic. I wrote a comment telling Amira I believe we are not alone and went on about Lightworkers, forgetting this linked also to my second poem!
Before ‘meeting’ Amira, and starting this blog, I was hesitant to be open about my thoughts on some topics, and to share poems such as Insight because I know many people would not believe such things. But, since we began this sharing connection, and with all the encouraging comments I have received (on Amira’s blog) it has been far easier for me to be open with the stories of my poems and to just follow my intuition and write anything!
It is so fascinating how we can meet some people and instantly know there is a connection that will develop into more, and even change our lives. This hasn’t happened for a while for me, but I certainly felt this with Amira from the very first email we exchanged! Who knows where our connection will lead?!!! Bless you Amira.
What a beautiful poem dear Trina!!! It’s amazing to see the synchronicities unfolding!…
I also feel the same way, since we “met” here, we shared an instant spiritual connection, and it has been a great blessing for me as well. I celebrate and treasure this new friendship. I have always felt very inspired by your poems since the very first one I read!
Blessings, light and love back to you as well. Amira
P.S. I look forward to “re-posting” this poem soon 🙂

Thank you Amira, so pleased you liked it! Oh boy, those synchronicities are flowing! Another one happened yesterday – I never said in my write on this poem, but I actually wrote a third one, but I wasn’t sure about using it at all. Then yesterday I got an email about a new film on Netflix and was blown away with the significance. I won’t say more than that because obviously now I will share, with the story too!
It was only two months ago (tomorrow) that you first made contact with me, so much has happened since then, it seems as though I have known you for years! I too, ‘celebrate and treasure this new friendship,’ and eagerly await how it continues to unfold!
Love, Light & Blessings
Trina
