Devotion

Devotion
    Is the cry
    That compels God
To seize the aspirant
With the very madness of Love.

A piece of candy,
    Lo, the child is won.
An iota of devotion,
God, the true and real God
Is captured.

Sweeter than honey,
    Purer than flowers.
    Deeper than love,
The flame-waves of devotion-light.
