Love

We all go from lonely hearts
to the alter of love
in this journey-
life’s journey-
The lover and the dreamer- 
they arrived on this
path which is common
to all people-
which is shared
by each and every person-

Love makes the earth
a bed of tenderness-
flowering in honey- 
The fullness of its
soul and its clarity
handed out
to all by the
loving spoonful-

The earth
glows
from the
bright origins
of the heart-
surging in colorful flags-

O-love-sweetness- 
glowing endlessly-
fragrant air and flowers-
we rest deep inside you-
In you we make life-
and we play within you-

Love
you build up or tear down
the bed of dreams-
Love-
you show
us the way-not only 
to the tenderness of life
but to the alter of dreams-
love-you
slip into life with us and
with your fragrat sweetness- 
you show  us the gateway 
to each others souls-California Blue
