People and events have triggered my emotions which expressed themselves in poetic form, not in any regular formal tradition more as an expression of ideas or feelings. The pattern of the poems came from the sound of the words in my mind not from any formal poetic arrangement. Ged

The Wounds of Love


The wounds of love
 
Rack my heart, while

Suffering measures my desire.

Your picture evokes my despair, yet



Elevates my hope - a sign of tomorrow

All in one breath.

O suffering love, banish my sorrow

Overcome my heart-felt loss!



Today you are in my soul beyond

The mind. Now

Let love, ride roughshod

Over my wastefulness, my futility,



Let joy overcome the forsaken yearning

Of heart-felt needs.

Let love reach out, grasping to

Raise my spirits from the depths.





Wounds of love,

Dare to rack my heart.

Bring joy!

Bring on love!
