Sitting by this open window
looking out on the windswept lane
as soft breezes left after the storm
blow miracles of consciousness on my face
Once again I realize you've gone forever's way
there is no normalized ratio to love.
Memories can be the curse of happiness!

Memories are the curse of happiness, yes, I agree, but memories can also bring smiles.

Yes, that's so true Jerry that's why I wrote "can be".
In this case it applies......Just a little lamenting poem I guess.
Thanks for the reply.

true love never looks after it's own interests

"there is no normalized ratio to love"

True!
Since love can not be normal itself
for every time it's unique )

Eric, I felt every breath, emotion, experience of this sad, but beautiful gem.
