I had to resubmit this because it is one of my favorites. I couldn't help think of EA's comment to Loner about going around with her eyes closed


Another Chance


If love would come and unfold
itself just one more time
The stars in the night would twinkle
and my hollow heart would find a pulse

If love would open up its door
and give a second chance
then howling wolves who guard the night
would turn their yearnings to song
and in the center of the midnight moon
sing a chorus of found refrain

If love would again open
up my eyes
Then all I need see would be
the truth of simple beauty
and in that truth unconditional acceptance
of love's forgiveness
If just one more time
love chanced to me

So much truth in this, if love would only see reality sometimes many things would open up.  Maree, I loved this poem and very glad you decided to submit it.

I certainly can see why this would be one of your personal favorites!

I was surprised when I saw your comment re my comment to Julie's poem!

I wish you luck with this one! It deserves to be in the book!

Warm Irish hugs,

Joyce, Spirit, Mysteria, Poet DeVine, Enchantress, Earth Angel, and Nan.

Thank you all so much. You have no idea what it means to me to be accepted by each of you at Piptalk. Each of you write with such poise and expression. I am always eager to read and read and read. Wish I could be here all the time just taking in your words of wisdom and experience.  May you all continue to write and stay within reach of my eyes.

Janet, Capt Hair, Bill, Alice, Catalina

To each of you "thank you". Wistful longing and no going back. It's tough isn't it? Thanks for stopping in. I couldn't ask for better company.
