   Listen for the Sound of Love

In the gentle Christmas evening
bells that float across an infinite
star-drenched twilight sky,
listen for the sound of love.
In the frost-etched Winter forest
painted in soft-shadow moonlight,
listen for the sound of love
In children’s innocent laughter
on that most special December morn,
listen for the sound of love.
In the depths of your own saddened
   mind
and lonely memory-heart,
listen for the sound of love.

                    --- b. e. adams (12/2013)

I enjoyed the juxtaposition of sadness and joy within the same poem
