The Bailiff Of The Heart

While doing mediation,
I spent some time in courtrooms.
Perhaps that's why this poem 
impresses me so much.
Finding love in the courtroom,
especially in the stern faced bailiff,
stretches your powers of imagination.
But isn't that what love does?
Stretching your assumptions
into seeing something differently,
more spaciously, 
with a more generous perspective?
It somersaults the storyline.
"She long ago gave up believe in justice.
Still, she believes in love."
