    a chance on love

Love …

always a timeless mystery
and though sometimes
  lost
is never wasted.
The finest of gifts
is new love,
born of forgiveness
and unconditional,
which can only wait
in patient hope
of  acceptance
and return.

Likely 'too late' for me, my friends ... but, hopefully ... this 'love impression' will be of 'inspiration' to others!

Uplifting and beautifully written, Bruce. Brightened my cold, grey day.

you were right...I did like it on many levels...as others have noted, in ambiance, in attitude, in aspiration, and in a whole bunch of other words that start with 'a' that I just can't think of right now. ...truly, well-written...enjoyed
