Joseph P. DiMino Poet Free verse

The Last Word

I think love requires
little more than willing – 

if doors and windows
are closed and shuttered,
fresh air and sunlight
cannot find a healing sliver – 

but slightly ajar, light and
warmth begin to restore
blessed comfort-places – 

For love is truly mystical,

transcending logic and
all reason; outpacing Time
and Space's trackless, furthest
distance – 

we are born for fondly dreaming

our heart's cravings, when properly
in tune, likened to the silvered 
strings of angelic harps –  

Men may try to take all joy from life...
But God has The Last Word – which is 
always, Love!
