"Bringing Love"

  I thought things would end.

But I didn't know what you had in store for me.

I always believed things had an ending.

But you showed me I was wrong.

You kept bringing your love around and around again.

You refused to let love end. 

I now believe there is no ending as long as I have you with me.

I believe that so much.

I don't even know how to end this poem.

Nor do I want to.

Your words move in soft circles, returning to love the way a tide keeps finding shore. There’s a tenderness in how you describe being proven wrong by what stayed, how presence became its own kind of miracle. The ending lingers beautifully, unwilling to close, the way love resists closing too. It feels honest, open, and full of quiet devotion.

Curly Grace, there you go again. dissecting my poem line by line. It is good that you know what you are doing. You are so skilled with your scalpel, I've never felt any cuts. You are always looking for the good in them. Thank you.

Nicely written Randall. I love how you closed out the poem.

[Randall]

Thank you, Michael. I've never tried to close out a poem without closing it out. Sounds strange, doesn't it?

Not at all

Wonderful sentiment expressed here. To believe with confidence is certainly something to celebrate after doubts. Tender and beautifully conveyed.

Sometimes I think we make life tough on ourselves. Questioning everything when we could just simply believe one another. Thank you, Chris. Time is precious.

P.S. If you ever run into any Dalloway's over there. Please tell them I'm not the one who flipped the first letter A and the Letter O of our name (Dalloway) to (Dollaway).

Betty, I hope you are staying warm where you are. Love is always about learning and acceptance of what we learned. Bringing us to a point of never ending love. As always, thank you for your kind, gentle words.
