Love's Ballet

How does one describe true love But a feeling deep down in one's soul Intangible, a mystery, a true enigma Just actors playing a role It's why this world keeps spinning round Billions and billions of times A truer truth has never been uttered The ultimate in feelings sublime Imagine us humans unable to love An armada of empty vessels Floating along on a nothingness sea Riding life's precarious trestle My love and I are truly fortunate To have found this illusive dream An enigma that's puzzled this old world Since man happened on the scene Trying to define the meaning of love Is like trying to describe the wind We feel the effects that both can have But the visual comes from within It's only a matter of perseverance Love eventually will come your way Take heart and show a little patience You'll soon be dancing love's ballet © Jack Ellison 2014

Yep, Our Jack is back... and espousing love as always... Everything is now right with the world... And Yep, Dragon laid back down for a nap with his blankie right after his second breakfast... So the peace will reign for a while longer... YAY...!
