Something hits between the eyes
and, no, it’s not your smile
but a feeling from the deep inside
looking for a state of mind.

It finds and holds and satisfied
sits quietly for a time
until urgency begets a sigh
and love no more denied.

It’s just the turn-around of time
that spins a woman’s life
from then to now and woe betide
the one who speaks of lies.

That’s me, you see, and I cry
within where time abides
and manages my state of mind
as if I was a wife.

But present, past, future, times,
the dimensions of a mind
overall can hold no lie
when love the faithful guide!

There is such wisdom displayed in your beautiful poem, dear Helen.

When love is our guide what can ever be wrong?

Thank you, Margherita! What's wrong is that I can't keep up with all the poems being posted here and I do think I'm missing out.

But thank you so much for reading me.

Love

Your presence is always highly appreciated dear Helen. It's quite a challenge to "keep up" with all the poems posted here ... actually it is impossible. Sometimes in the evening I sit at the computer with the idea to write, but then I come in here for a read and then I want to reply and in the end I have no time left to write (or also no energy!). So time exists, rules us and is tyrant, even if scientists have a different opinion ...

Sending this one up again.

Much love
Margherita

Helen, that is a wonderful poem, especially this last verse

But present, past, future, times,
the dimensions of a mind
overall can hold no lie
when love's the faithful guide!

So much enjoyed.

Thank you so much, Roniece. Beauty is love, love is beauty and words the expression of such.
