I Know You in So Many Ways

April 27, 2018

Dear Subscriber:

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

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

A love poem about two kinds of love:

I know you in so many ways,

And yet I don't know you at all,

Will never know you,

For you are a mystery impenetrable

Even by love.

Love, like a wave, washes over the sand,

But then must roll back into itself,

Ever dying,

Ever resurrected.

Yet beyond love is another love

Which neither lives nor dies

But simply is --

Within us,

Beyond us,

Which we can touch by holding hands.
