PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

If we have loved, even 'though we have not shown it,

then we have felt a thing that will last forever!

If we've  BEEN  loved, although we have not known it,

then of  "The  Thing  Eternal"  we are a partaker.



Even beyond the memory of our own life

we share something of the spark of Art,

the Heart of Muse.  Love can wield a sharp knife

that heals even as it wounds the tender heart.



But if our Love was not a well-kept secret,

and we have felt, and we have touched and shared,

then we are blessed with Blessing past man-measure,

what's known alone to those who've deeply cared.



And if our Loving has been truly open,

sharing heart-to-heart with our beloved,

then that's enough to be our Inspiration,

and nothing else can ever rise above it.



True Loving is beyond even those distant angels

who are  made to love----they have no choice.

But  WE  can choose our Heart-ways, since we're mortals;

two hearts and minds become one breath and voice.
