   The Voice of Love

When the exquisite voice
of new love beckons
in velvet or in thunder,
follow only the truest
compass of your heart
with stout courage,
leaving all for love
giving all for love,
for love is the finest
hope beyond all hope
and the grandest
dream within
every dream ...
calling you ‘home.’

Bruce, I feel that Love becomes a deep seated memory,which gives promise that one day another love will  come along. Age holds no bars to love. Loving another is not disrespect, but an honor to the first one and allows us to go one because of what we shared before.  Best to you,jo

I believe you have a fine and true philosophy of Love there !

Senryu:

   Morning Song

  dance with the dawn
sing with the sunrise
  for Love is here
  and joy has
  awakened!

You've a unique feel for the subject of love. The clarity of emotion is astounding.

More feelings and fewer words please
