"As life is love so love is poetry"


Poem Artwork

Sea Stones

 

My son said the words of my poetry

Are like stones smoothed and rounded by the sea

 

Like sea stones I have carried from the beach

I carry his analogy with me

While savoring the sayings all and each

Of his and other hearts in my own heart

As inward echoes after when apart

 

Love grows down deep like the roots of a tree

And up from these roots through trunk and through stem

Through bud and through bloom the seed comes to be

Smoothed like these sea stones and rounded like them

As life is love so love is poetry

"As life is love so love is poetry"

I find this verse powerfully thought-inciting, Stevie. The whole poem is, as usual, a wonderful gift from your creative soul. Thank you, my friend. Love and peace to you,

I really enjoyed this as it reminds me of Sunrise Beach in Cape May. The last line brings it home for me.

Omega Factor by John Henning

Take some time to walk outside of your own mind and into another, walk slowly and carefully; the mind that you step on might be your own.
