Love Waits Patiently

Love waits, patiently, for those who dare to dream, and envision what their future can be while waiting for their spirit to be set free. Suspended between sunray and moonbeam, time stands still, as they anticipate nature’s will together, -forever- together, as they anticipate nature’s will, time stands still, suspended between sunray and moonbeam. While waiting for their spirit to be set free, and envision what their future can be, for those who dare to dream, patiently, love waits. August 27, 2018

So beautiful, John. I especially like, "suspended between sunray and moonbeam..." Reversed, the poem is just as lovely. Take care.

Congratulations, John! I love that this reads both ways then comes together in the middle with the word "forever."

So beautifully written, congratulations! The question is does love really waits patiently? Sometimes it comes; but the timing is not right... so it flickers and fizzles... until maybe, same love comes a second time.... the right time... Have a good Sunday.

I wrote effusively on my feelings about this poem but thought i would embarrass you so tried to send via soup mail. you write so well on love. unsurpassed. i am a cynic but you made me believe. all art derives from art and cliches are unavoidable. but you side step them all and create something so fresh it makes you believe.

I would love to hear your effusive comments on this poem and love in general, Tansy, I don’t think you could embarrass me if you tried. I welcome your soup mail. All the best my friend. Hugs, John

Minimalistic. Refreshing. And the visual aspect (Reminds me of a spinning propeller)

Indeed, reversible - patient waits love. Being silly. I wrote a reversible poem once without intending to do so, a fluke, now I cannot (as yet) write one deliberately. This is very creative, enjoyable and appealing, John. All the best ... CayCay
