Like the white feather
  in a blizzard  
caring only for
the will of the wind…

love...

('thief of hearts;'
    soul destructor;
      eternal mystery)

is a fleeting echo
in the moonlight.

Yo Secondhanddreampoet,

This is well written in proper English.  That's always a good thing.

Now, this is a poem about love that I can admire and enjoy, Bruce. Makes sense to me.
Hauntingly beautiful.

Your graceful touch of melancholy always leaves sweet echoes.

eternal mystery yes, but true love lifts the soul and the heart, it does not "take" anything nor "destruct" anything ...

You, the Universalist, you know about the touch of Universal Love that wraps you in its mind boggling arms. Your melancholy stems from the yearning for the Whole, of which we are not always fully aware, but which we remember somehow....

Love,
Margherita

"Like the white feather
  in a blizzard"

I wish I'd thought of this. (I'd have chosen metaphor over simile, though, and screwed it up completely.)

I always do. *weak smile*

A moving poem, lovie.
