Within love
discontinuities, however
you count the bickering and maybe
one or two of the fallings-out
followed by climbings-back-in
they do say it's there anyway
the pair-bonding, for life, like
two swans.

Eileen,
ReplyDeleteLove has been a toughie to handle -- as subject and as reality! Its dimensions outstrip my writing (and other?) abilities!
