This morning, dear friends, I will post you a poem about love. Before doing so I was going for a walk and it came to me that Love in all its forms must be the subject most written about. The subject causing most pain and elation.
In every art form it has been written, painted, sculpted and sang about. Listening to songs today by the very young I was struck by how similar the lyrics are from those so long ago. Lyrics about break-ups – not being able to survive them. About the shining stars in each others eyes when love rises high and you can all help me fill in the rest.
I do therefore surmise that love is the biggest force and may we tend it with the care and respect it deserves.
ILLUSORY
Love between humans can be, elations and emotions run high Tainted by ownership; you are mine. Bonds that tie the souls down, To me you belong.
We give our hearts in trust, To keep in tenderness, in infinite care; How then to avoid the trap, you are mine? You cannot own her, nor she you.
Only unbound can you dance together free as the wind, Forever wanting to live in each other’s hearts. A nourishing, fulfilling love.
When we meet first time, a seismic force inexplicably draw us together; Your eyes meet and so do your hands, as you dance, feeling you always belonged.
Walking along lakes, canals, in parks Feelings of belonging just grow. Surety, calmness; we belong Always did.
Resting in each other’s arms, listening; realizing Mozart never did sound powerful, ethereal like this. Feelings of utter peace, As if life and death are the same.
