How Can It Be?

Goldfinch60



How can it be?

So many years ago we met

And our souls joined.

Our love for each other shines,

Shines through our eyes

As we look into our one soul.

So long together

But each day our love grows,

Grows stronger each day.

So much love we have,

We have for each other.

As we reach the twilight,

The twilight of our years, we know,

We know that our love is stronger,

So much stronger.

It devours us with joy,

The joy of being one with each other.

That love will still be with us

As our soul becomes Our Spirit,

And our love gets ever stronger.

How can it be?

It can be,

As this is love,

This is true love.

 

 

“Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies” Aristotle.

    A lovely write Gold. In most Old Testament thought, the 'Wisdom' writers say to pack in as much as we can each day. 'This life is all there is' seemed as one sort of motto to them, with not much concept of an after-life or eternity. Understandable, as it was not yet the time of Jesus and the New Testament.

      The afterlife is there and My Spirit will be there.

          It's like coming out the other side of a bomb explosion (life) isn't it Andy - to realize that something real and wonderful comes out alive...... I'm so happy for you.

            Thank you Lorna, I know all will be wonderful.

            Outstanding good sir and yet I wonder how it is that I still have to remind myself of your words.
            Thank you

            • Goldfinch60

              Those words can be within you Dan, they are there for you to find.

              I know you wrote this feeling poem from your own heart but it could also have been written for Jeanne and me - super work Andy.
