Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is anniversaries.
Today’s poem is an eighth anniversary poem about the
sweetness of loving.
I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.
Yours,
Nick Gordon
Eight years and counting! How sweet the wonton ways!
In mutual love there’s freedom to enjoy
Gifts given for the sheer delight of giving.
How beautiful to love and to be loved!
The simple formula for happiness.
Yet love, yes, even love must have its days,
Enduring moments when one would destroy
All that lingers at the heart of living.
Remember in those times the time you moved
So shyly, joyfully, towards innocence.
