After love there is love
with another unexpected person
or with some biblical evidence,
the heart needs to beat again
and to share his neglected solitude,
in unspoken infidelity there is love
in passion there is love,
love with roses in the garden,
with grand kids or countries,
afer love there is love
even with your cat that sings
or with a spoilt photo of the Grand Canyon,
after love there is love
no matter you have been hurt
open your eyes widely again.

Yes, my dear, wise, compassionate Frenchie friend, I have found that to be true. There IS love after love ~ but as you so beautifully expressed, we need to open our hearts ~ and eyes ~ again to let it in.

Your poem offers the promise of new love to those who have loved and lost.

Heart hugs,

Linda

Thank you very much Linda, we stand in our positions sometimes and we don't see around that there are opportunities because we are sad or depressed...despising love is the most sad of business heart, I think there is hope when you feel it and don't complain about the past...Easy to think, hard to do...Thanks you so much Linda. what you said is true.

Oh, dear Yann, with every new poem of yours you reveal not only your wonderful skills in this art, but also your wisdom and sensitivity.

This is so totally after my heart. It is so beautiful, so uplifting, so very poignant too.

Love every line of it! A keeper for me!

Love,
Margherita

There are so many differant kinds of love, love of life, love for our families, love for a friend, love a mother has for a child is differant than the love you have for a spouse.  Our hearts have so many chambers to hold so many differant kinds.

I love your poem.

This is a particularly fine poem which shows great insight into the compassionate mind.  A true gem of a poem Yann, one of your best I have read here according to my opinion.  The thoughts behind, the way you write your words, so caring and loving.

This lovely poem IS you, Yann – full of compassion, kindness, faith, soul, consideration, bravery, sincerity, deep self-knowledge, sensitivity, a close affinity with nature, love of all kinds, especially agapé love, the one that encompasses all the others.  I am so glad that I came into PIP tonight.  Thank you for the pleasure and enrichment of reading this gem.
