Betweeness.

Fay Slimm.

 

 

Betweeness.

 

Between yesterday
and tomorrow there lies the display
of today's fresh bounty
readily able to take a chance
knowing fate brooks no need for delay. 


Between solemn
grey nowness and yonder's infinity
distant shores tantalize
with frustration's resistance yet
provide right timing to furnish relief.


Between waking
and sleeping there exists somewhere
of rarely dreamed freedom,
an oasis where lonely people
find peace in which love can be shared.


Between heaven
and paradise lies the state of new-song
for true hearts who yearn
to experience in warm oneness
reasons for bliss in the feel of belonging.

    Wow I admire the poetic terms with which you convey your muse here. I like using oasis , brook and yonder so I enjoyed how you employed your word choice. It's creative how you theme this on the bliss of togetherness and love's warmth. Kudos for such an awesome poem.!!

    Between lovers
    A world of love exists in harmony
    That goes on for eternity
    Where two souls become one
    Never ever parting
    The love increasing in their journey.
