I find this piece by Chesterton to be lovely:
Madonna Mia
About Her whom I have not yet met
I wonder what she is doing
Now, at this sunset hour,
Working perhaps, or playing, worrying or laughing,
Is she making tea, or singing a song, or writing,
or praying, or reading
Is she thoughtful, as I am thoughtful
Is she looking now out of the window
As I am looking out of the window?
and then
On Love
...For romance was only the name given to a love of life which was something much larger than a life of love...
finally
Irish Impressions
A religion is not the church a man goes to but the cosmos he lives in.
