Essential Truths and Immutable Love

When Spring is still dazed
by Winter’s indifference,
and my soul longs to squeeze all beauty
from each new blade of grass on the
  shivering hills,
my mind meanders...
(in restless-twilight memories
  beyond a furtive sunset)
through storm-fevered winds
on wilderness seas
in a world of endless uncertainty.
My lonely heart drifts afar...
(with the bright, reverberant scents
of  softly whispering ‘poet dreams’)
in purest pursuit of infinitely simple
essential ‘truths’ and immutable love!

Exploring the mystery inherent in the eternal, one might say that love takes its form of action from truth, and truth obtains its power from love. Neither one alone, however, comprises a human being. In this poem, you have wisely included both in the same breath, as each becomes the other and together they make one. Makes me think of D.H. Lawrence. Well crafted, hypnotic and beautifully done!
