Life And Love
A writing in a tablet
Of time and space is
Life, that is prose and
Love, that is poetry.
In life, as in prose,
Words come normally
Not measured. At times,
Even reckless.
In love, as in poetry,
Words come abnormally, but
Properly and beautifully...
Marshalled as to measure and
Conform to agree, not disagree,
Make, not break.
I, therefore, ask...
One and all--to live life
In the context of poetry.
