5540 Eyes of Truth 20 July 2006 The end, the beginning where love and life meet Yet would the twain find its way home that place of hearts to dwell as if happiness was more to delight Lost in a wilderness of yesterday’s dreams unable to control tomorrow in woe Another child born to poverty her heart captured beneath the moon To see her in salience each tear ripped from His side At last an Almighty in gratitude but was love going to be this conquest A dividend of patience every storm another reign to overcome Her beauty, those eyes of truth hands held in grace far beyond the stars “And said, For this cause shall a man leave father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh. What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder.” Matthew 19: 5-6 KJV © 2006 Christopher W Herbert (a New Zealand Poet) a poet who cares |

I like it. I got a bit confused but that's probably just me. I can be quite the airhead. aziza |

It you think you are confused, so am I, and I wrote the poem to begin with. For when it comes to poetry, it is a way to let those thoughts out, even thoughts that in their own way are an element of confusion a poet who cares |
