Jody and Blue

January 9, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is marriage.

Today’s poem is about how love can overcome the limitations and frustrations of marriage.

I welcome comments on my poems at http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com.

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Jody and Blue have a great deal to do
On their way to be blissfully wed,
Determined to be repossessed by the sea
Yet confining themselves to one bed.

Bright days and nights can be had without lights;
Love works well, if by will, in the dark.
Undoing the pain of frustration and strain,
Each arrow finds always its mark.
