Love In Episodes

Such explosions of love ecstatic from fumbling youths and naive romantics. In wedded bliss when passions flowed two people alone in honeymoon glow Flammable pleasure, ignitable moments to treasure, we did love, we did fight, You and I. Like awaited episodes of a reality show, responsibilities began to gnaw as they grow. The candle of love flickered with breath abated claiming its due from fires deflated. Though loving was tender still quick to temper we did love, we did fight, You and I. The children gone and the house deserted alone again with our quality time protected. A simple touch, a gentle nudge then smiling, at such an age one mistake saw patience flying. Eyes bleary, hard or hearing but recalling clearly, we did love, we did fight, You and I. The rocking chair now sways to silent music only in the eyes can one realise, such beauty. Smoldering fires of love and reined in emotions, memorising every tryst with pledges of devotions. Blessed with so much given and oceans of raw passion in abundance we lived as God promised, His love unrationed. still we hated, we had to fight, but we did love You and I.

Hi Tiaua, Thanks for your comment on my poem. I liked your love in episodes too. I think it is interesting how love changes over the seasons of life. You capture that well and your poems flow nicely. Marj mentioned a local poet used this site and now I know who your are. Manuia le afiafi, Jackie
