You and I, my love, together are one - Just like the sky and the morning sun. I am the torch, you are its fire; You are the current, I am the wire. Apart we would be like a bird without flight, A rose void of scent, the day without night. Who has experienced great joy without laughter Or a memorable tale with no. . . ever after? And just as there is no land without sea, I cannot imagine a you without me. For R, the love of my life. You've only been gone for a couple of hours, yet I miss you so much already. |

Fabulous poem. I liked the comparisons. Be well Kethry "It is the image in the mind that links us to lost treasures; but it is the loss that shapes the image, gathers the flowers weaves the garland."- |

Brandyn - this poem is so tight! And that is meant in a good way. The similes are so right om the mark, and it all ties together perfectly, including the order in which it is all written. Terrific writing, lady. |

Brandyn~ Enjoyed the thoughts. Particularly this - 'You are the current, I am the wire.' Now is that anyway to conduct yourself ! ~*Marge*~ ~*The pen of the poet never runs out of ink, as long as we breathe.*~ noles1@totcon.com |
