'Poem for the week' -- "My Love":
My love has hair
Like midnight,
But midnight fades to dawn.
My love has eyes
Like starlight,
But starlight fades in morn.
My love has a voice
Like dew-fall,
But dew-fall dies at a breath.
My love has love
Like life’s all,
But life’s all fades in death
-- Bruce Nugent
This may seem depressing....
But, isn't there something redeeming about acknowledging the truth that all things die?
Redeeming, really? Yes, because death is involved in the perpetuation of life. This is true in all realms of existence.
