When Always I Say

WHEN ALWAYS I SAY You posed the question, My dear, What “always” means When I say, You, I love. Since Answer unable was I to give, My soul that had spoken the word, I asked and Instantly The answer came, from The depths of depths Of her heart, “By always” she said, “This is what I mean, To love her: From dawn till dusk From January to December From the cradle to the grave to The beyond and then to Dawn again!" ©Demetrios Trifiatis 04 March 2013 *Inspired by Eileen’s Manassian Ghali poem: “How Long is Your Always” Posted, 03 March 2013

This is great. I never thought of this before. It makes sense. I also wonder - How long is long? Thanks for sharing. Lucilla
