Dear Subscriber:
Each week we examine a theme from a variety of points of
view. The theme for this week is love.
I welcome comments on my poems at https://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com
.
A love poem about the variety of ways
in which one loves:
There are many, many
ways in which I love you,
As many ways as
there are me's and you's:
Some pure, some not
so pure, some hard above you,
Some soft and sweet
below, some--well, you choose!
We're animal and
human and divine
All wrapped in one
confused and messed-up ball.
I think sometimes
with me it would be fine
If God would just
decide to chuck it all.
But see the varied
avenues of pleasure
Our multi-layered
beings can enjoy!
Your flesh and heart
equally I treasure
With all the pent-up
anguish of a boy.
I long for both your
body and your face;
I need both warmth
and heat in your embrace.
