Love Never Dies

Should I write again of love?
Surely, by now, the moon
has had her full; and those
luxury cruses best put off,
taxes long overdue; besides,
those who love well
love well in a canoe--

which is precisely my point--
love is never through: 

For the wind loves the bird---
that’s why he flies; as much
for the wind as his own 
bird’s eyes; and why such
manic caw? Much like
our spastic cries—in the
climax of it all, he knows
even if he falls,
love never grows old…
and love
never dies….

I like the way you put a new slant on an old subject, then bring it full circle. Very effective.

True love never dies, someone false interpretation of love does... And indeed you did write again..

Yep! Know what you mean. In my 70 years I've had my share of those false ones as well. But survived! Not only that. Have come full circle, and now even love those who have hurt me. That is my greatest achievement in life. And the only one I will choose to take with me when I leave this circle of revolving, evolving experience:) You made my day Si. Bless you my friend.
