Maybe There's a Reason for It All

May 8, 2017

Dear Subscriber:

Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of view. The theme for this week is motherhood in honor of Mother’s Day, which falls on May 14.

Today’s poem is a Mother’s Day poem about the beautiful music of love.

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

Yours,

Nick Gordon

Maybe there's a reason for it all.

Or maybe not. There doesn't have to be.

The music is enough, a melody

Heard coming from behind the Western Wall,

Echo of enduring ecstasy,

Remnant of a love beyond recall,

So beautiful one must sing harmony.
