         Chattel (#2)

The ‘life mystery’
cannot be solved,
only lived and cherished.
All that is finest in it
cannot be owned …
one cannot possess love,
wonder, joy, or surprise.
Love is poetry.
Poetry is love.

So good to read your artistry again, b.e. The last two lines are classic!

Your poetry is the very definition of the art---words that move the upper ear and mind to a new comprehension.

Love. A hateful necessity, at times.

Thank you for attributing a wisdom beyond affluence to that which cannot be owned.  Enjoyed each line.
