The Secret There is a secret behooves my face Old as time never moved its place I’ve searched the fringes of my mind And to myself have been unkind I searched the stars and searched my dwell I looked in heaven, looked in hell The answer seemed impossible Attainment seemed improbable It seemed to me outside my clutch A vision just outside my touch An endless path, endless discuss Yet part of life my omnibus A rainbow reaching to the clouds A puff of lace a colored shroud A faith so strong where nothings wrong Two souls that meet and sing one song It is the hand that wears a glove Whose touch will offers up, just love |

Seymour, Looks to me like you are on a quest for the Holy Grail again. I sense a little irony, spiced with humor and wit to complete the cocktail. I love the following two lines: The answer seemed impossible Attainment seemed improbable possibly because by reversing the assumptions it spells out what I have found for most of my life: The answer seemed improbable Attainment seemed impossible Loved the poem (excuse my mind) LOL Ivor |

A faith so strong where nothings wrong Two souls that meet and sing one song It is the hand that wears a glove Whose touch will offers up, just love ~*~ Not many might ply a sigh such as you. But you do it so gently! |

"It is the hand that wears a glove Whose touch will offers up, just love" And, not the glove that wears the hand; To love, 'tis all there is for man. Loved this poem, Sy. The question of our being, our seeking....and the answer, all in this wonderful poem! ....jo |
