Deep in the heart

interloper – someone or something that intrudes in a place or sphere of activity.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

What is this interloper
that steals in
silent as a cat
and strikes
swiftly as a viper?

Tell me,
what is this interloper
that stalks
surely as a hunting lion
and as relentless
as a pit bull?

Oh, please,
tell me,
what is this interloper
that evokes:
laughter and tears,
joy and despair,
pleasure and pain,
excitement and despondence,
triumph and defeat,
aspiration and apathy,
need and desperation,
and ... Hope?

Always ... hope.

What name to give this ... interloper?

LOVE


11/2000 Doctor Love

Thankyou dear poet for posting this again. I was not a member the first time you placed this awesome piece on the pages of blue. Enjoyed. Chris

I only disagree with two points here...
you're not a viper...
and you're not a pit bull...

LOL...but you are a charming poet!
