love

love

A Poem by Lydia Shutter
"

valentine's day is only a couple weeks away!

"


you are the stem

holding up everything meaningful in my life

my bridge over a psychedelic and frothy sea

of life’s indifference

the prologue to yesterday’s hopes

and the climax of today’s exciting story

a splendiferous orchestration

of all i need

in a word……love!

hmmm I think Cupid is having it's way with you Lydi... LOVE, a 4 letter word that actaully makes the world go round and round or as you say. "a splendiferous orchestration" and its a soulful tune too... but you know valentines day is mainly for those who only love once a year, you on the other hand do love and get love 24/7/365... which of course make for very "nice" in your world and by extention ours!!! ~~redzone

"Splendiferous"--what a word!
For that matter, what a poem!
An eloquent--indeed, elegant--creation, Lydi.

This is a beautiful dedication to your 'love' and perfect image to go with it. If he is the stem, you are the rose:-) I can almost get a whiff of it as I read.
