I Just Realized

I just realized, that
most of my poems
are about love – Albeit,
not the physical aspects
of love – I mean, how often
we need to feel one another
up? For the different aspects
of love may be infinite: starting
with the Touchy-feely, sinking us
deeper, beyond – penetrating 
membranes of surface moisture
to far vaster 
thermal seas –

“ far vaster thermal seas –“ yes! I can certainly identify with this. I write about love most of the time too. Romantic love, love of children, love of humanity, and most certainly love of nature. Beautiful Joe. Blessings xxoo

Hi Connie; kindred spirits we are. I think a poet just loves...that is all. As Keats said: "Truth is beauty...Beauty is Truth -- that is all." I think poets/poetess' are love...and love is poetry -- that is all! You made my day my friend. xxoo

On a different note, unrequited love is one of immortal kind, it will rise up from thermal seas to the stars and sparkle forever! an another very aesthetically deep and pure love is platonic love. I think you are actually talking of such platonic kind of love also. Everything we appreciate is also love one way or the other! Fine realization Joe. Thanks - Marshall.
