Can it Matter, Now? Some past guest of some other life genetically controlling parts of each we ~ are these, our limbs, oh, so truly free? We wonder. ~*~ We found a road we thought was true, and smiled into warm eyes of wood’s hue when some drunk then rearranged the ever longest road and fell, we did, with some mindless heft, two fully de-arranged toads. Near a year, or more this we thought was “mine” to choose to live, or mayhap be we would dwell in brine, and still some bubbles frothed on forth and then another chose our course… for we somehow filled another with power, a new and fiercely forceful gain and perhaps a moment’s brief amen, and yes, even yes, possibly, some pain, but win or lose, somehow with sane, and that is what we find in darkest brief long night, when stress has left, forlorn its soul, we nigh a’one have taken flight, nor leave behind the course began, for at the end, yes, no one ran. Can it Matter? Yes, it shall, whether anyone might believe, we know, through thick, and then through on some course of thin, we’ve run this road, and each of us will ride this horse called Marriage. © Karilea Rilling Jungel To my Husband, 06-21-1980 – 06-21-2007 Thanks for getting back on the horse. |

Karilea, One of the most stunning poems I have read in quite a while... It isn't often that a poem calls for me to read it more than three times, but this one has me hooked. Perhaps, it is the subject Matter, the contemplation that went into its creation, or just the elegant flow of rhythm and sounds. Before shelved, I think I'll take a couple of more reads. Gorgeous poem full of the grace of marriage and reality. luv and hugs, misce' |

Sighs. I'm so happy for you. Congrats to you both. I really love reading about abiding love and how people make it through the rough "rides," together. I think my horse is dead. Dunno, I'm gettin' a bicycle with a basket and a bell. |
