Sing of Love and Love-Sustaining Passion

August 27, 2019

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 http://nicholasgordon.blogspot.com .

A number poem about the love of life:

Sing of love and love-sustaining passion,
Intimacy, friendship, lust, and joy,
X-ing out whatever might destroy
The love of life that ought one’s choices fashion,
Yearning for the gifts that spirits buoy.

So might one satisfy the deep desire
Ever burning in the inmost heart,
Vivid source of purpose, faith, and art,
Enduring flame of some eternal fire,
Never whole unless through love a part.
