Laughter Came from Every Brick

Love once said to me, “I know a song,
would you like to hear it?”

And laughter came from every brick in the street
and from every pore
in the sky.

After a night of prayer, He
changed my life when
He sang,

“Enjoy Me.”

— St. Teresa of Avila, translated by Daniel Ladinsky in Love Poems from God, p. 276
