Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

Love

So....you playfully say, if one loves you~

one must dot all of your heart-strings,

the endless number below and above -- 

just to hear me again say, that true love should
not critique: rise and fall with percentages whether
high or low -- 

if it were, there would be all accountants~ and no God -- 

and I would be, little more than another rhyme letterer

and not your dearest Bard.
