an original poem


-------------



my love for you is a red red rose
that grows in summer's dew

my love for you is a deep dark rose
that knows the love in you

my love is lighter than the air
with clouds and sun and moon

my love for you is like the night
the twilight and the doom

my love for you is as my blood
that bleeds away my life

and love, my love, you are so sharp
and cut me like a knife

and yet my love you are my love
with all that that may mean

and this is just for you, my love
that love may now be seen



. 1985

Love for God is full, yet empty without faith. This faith eludes the loveless, so in that some of us never love I guess. Beautiful poem.
