Returning of A Love

He sits there
praying to be found
by someone other than himself.

He loved her
beyond the earth
which no words could desrcibe.

He walks here
roaming the lands
that he once roamed with her.

He lies under
the stars of heaven
hoping for the return of his love.

"Some people react physically to the magic of poetry, to the moments, that is, of authentic revelation, of the communication, the sharing, at its highest level....A good poem is a contribution to reality. The world is never the same once a good poem has been added to it. A good poem helps to change the shape and significance of the universe, helps to extend everyone's knowledge of himself and the world around him." -Dylan Thomas (1913-1953)

Beautiful Lynn, I can relate to this one.
