i wrote this in 1977...



This then we saw
That men lacked not valour
When they lack not love–
Nor honour
When they lacked not love.
Not hope, nor gentleness
Nor faith did they lack
When they lacked not love.
We saw: We do not understand

So true, the human condition is a conundrum. Very pithy and elegant in it's simplicity. Good work, as usual.

why is it those who speak of love, of light, of peace, are called "communists" and "leftists" and "unpatriotic" and "cowards" ? - Why do so many say "Nobody wants war," yet throw stones at those who do not see more bloodshed as a just path to peace?

True reflection of life itself
This then we saw
That men lacked not valour
When they lack not love–
Nor honour
When they lacked not love.
Not hope, nor gentleness
Nor faith did they lack
When they lacked not love.
We saw: We do not understand
Yes we don't understand
Thanks for review on "Michelle"
Love
