Love's Caress
If it were not for touch of love's caress
I'd own no comfort word, no feel
If it were not for touch of love's caress
I'd be an ounce of water without keel ;
If love decided to,... decided not ?
I'd own a writer's pen but not a plot;
A dreamer I would be without a wake
A flaunter to the winds of fate
A tendon bone without a mate ;
For if this world were made of only hate,
then love could never take me on a date ;
I'd be an ounce of water on a plate
if love decided to embrace me as a foe
then love's caress innate, could never flow.
