Love Does Rise
Like willows bend to meet the breeze
on sullen days when nature speaks.
And too must we on fleeted wing,
rise up to meet the morning spring.
Of life doth come from caverns deep
to meet the sun on ragged peak.
All this and other reasons why,
the love does rise within our eyes.
~
For breath I hold on time unspent,
my sanction un-denied,
oh breathless self and sorrow born,
too blind for light to shine.
For passing truth does bear to me,
of selfish pride unsaid,
and wisp away the foolish doubts,
that only fools can sense.
For life’s a circle with no end,
of peaked mountain climbs,
yet all returns to mother’s womb,
to start a second time.

Beautiful flow, so pretty Tony. The rhythm really set the tone. Absolutely lovely, my friend.
Best,

Much appreciated Mel, found these the other day, some twenty years old. Glad you appreciated my young poet mind. Take care.
