                True Love

I long to wander far in twilight
and the dusky morning mist
that sleeps in soft sylvan glades,
with a mix of Autumn smoke and
distant Celtic tunes ascending …
from some mystic cottage
nestled on the edge of Time,
(near a flowing-marble
   turquoise sea)
until the last moon-shadow fears
melt with the dawn’s surprise
in a sun-emblazoned land
where only two ‘imperatives’
still remain with me forever …
to contemplate all the
‘possibilities’ of the clouds,
and … the simple dream of
true, unconditional Love !

Ah yes, the elusive "unconditional Love," which is here and then it is gone, and is the subject of many millions of lines of poetry.
