"You Have Love Within You - To Share..."

Sunday thoughts

"You have love within you - to share..."

 

There is love

and there is

...you...

there is - me

and then the we's 

- each an us

sharing I's,

and looks that are just...

love

being shared with any who sees.

I know,

because I DO watch, see

and look ...and breathe.

 

There IS Love

within

and fingers touch and spread

the sparkles light from eye-to-eye

within-the-glass flows-

to-heart-to-sigh

to-day and night dreams

that might last life-times' hopes

beyond a slight soft smile curving lips

to eyes gentle sight -

as with each night's fall

brings ceilings and walls

to moonlit fantasies of cloudscapes

star-dropped, backscattered visions

of rainbowed clarity and heart-full tightenings

where words hold sway over minds needing held

by more than mere dreams' fingertips.

 

There is Love

within

that reaches

and longs with its own needs and passion

to touch and hold and share LIFE

and all the days of tomorrows

...to fill our bittersweet with

 

     nows

 

that draw and drive,

grasp and squeeze TIGHT

that  fullness   brought and fraught with-

after-wishes and fear of loss...

that fullness of the fire within caresses 

to the pure heat of ice's touch.

 

There is Love

within

and reflected through

our eyes...

as we gaze

to the glass

through our lives.

For now we see through a glass, darkly.. ..

Not sure why, but your words brought this verse to mind ..

We settle for so much less than dreams we hold within..

Just a touch of love .. gives a faint heart, a reason to reach and be..

Softly caresses ....... lovely

[Rita L. Sev]

There is love... A truth, a prayer, a mantra... The intensity in this feels like a hug.

[David Scott]

There is love...
Especially as seen through the glass of shared experiences.
Wonderful thought Chris.

[Lydia Shutter]

Beautifully romantic words, Chris. There is a lacy tenderness to the imagery throughout. When two people are in love, it is reflected in the looks they exhange with one another...and felt when they hold hands. I liked the changing fonts....very effective. Just a charming poem. Lydi**
