Another Chance


If love would come and unfold
itself just one more time
The stars in the night would twinkle
and my hollow heart would find a pulse

If love would open up its door
and give a second chance
then howling wolves who guard the night
would turn their yearnings to song
and in the center of the midnight moon
sing a chorus of found refrain

If love would again open
up my eyes
Then all I need see would be
the truth of simple beauty
and in that truth unconditional acceptance
of love's forgiveness
If just one more time
love chanced to me

...and my hollow heart would find a pulse.... I like that line, as well as the rest of the poem. It is lovely.


Warmly,

So good to read you again...
How well you have spoken of the haunting, when at last it is the love we find inside ourselves that shifts the tide.

Dear Chippy,
I understand those tears and am touched that you have been so moved but, let them be tears of joy. Love has opened her arms to you and David. You have found your unconditional love and love has given you unconditional forgiveness.
