Love Vortex

love bleeds into me and now becomes life 
 Light fractures into rainbow’s  not  hate 
   Warm rises  from  my  lonely black  
     Rain summers life from past cold  
       Old  tear  filled  eyes  now  dry 
        Soft dreams make me young 
              Single    was    hard       
                 Two now pair 
                     We’re one 
                        Love

Excêllent! Its like the Venturi effect and very alluring. Apparently when you drain yor bathh for instance the whirl turns clockwise and anti-clockwise in the Southern hemisphere are visa versa and I have absolutely no idea why I am telling you this Jannie

Thanks Jannie...its only seen with air flow as Coriolis force so weak it hardly affects water flow...:)

WoW, I am seriously impressed. This looks incredibly difficult and ingenious! It is not just the shape of the vortex, but how beginning and end words oppose: love-hate; light-black; warm cold, and so on. Wonderful. 7 and fave

Based on Coriolis force this vortex "blows" in Northern hemisphere as it "turns counter clockwise"...crazy...but true!! "lefty loosy" Thanks for kind words Darren!
