A Poem of Diversity

A Poem Of Diversity

My love has been diversified
to enter in another world
of beauty alien to me
and filters change forever more

I left my bubble to explore
A  culture of diversity
and gleaned the lore expansively
to find a rhythm to engage

romantic straits began my scheme
then overflowed to find my dream
and nowhere else could I conjoin
my talisman and love for her

I gazed back and recalled the time
her olive skin and ebon hair
 a beacon that has beckoned me
to light up to a newer path

My latin lover tends to me
and I to her for decades past
we share our love extensively
and pray mañana never comes
