     first sight

passing stranger
with eyes
that dim the sun
in all this world
or any universe
of finest imaginings
  and dreams
there can be no equal;
and in this blessed,
fleeting moment
Love is all I know!

Is this a ship passing a ship, Sir?
I enjoyed it!

Follow the wake!

Bruce, the pain of loss, measures the gift of the love that was shared.  Those memories are very special and you were indeed blessed to have acquired them, but I know the pain of losing the loved one, is great.

Such magic does happen. A glance and the immediate connection brings life's beauty into perfect focus.

And the fleeting moment fixed the eternal awareness.

Wonderfully expressed, dear Bruce.

Love,
Margherita

"Love is all I know!"
And it is all anyone needs to know..
Short, fine work..the kind of poem that can keep one occupied with thought for a long while.
