Love's Due.
Love, blind to weakness,
sees what it chooses
but shadows cast images
and joy sits unused.
Doubt born of judgement
frowns at trust's view
and ends tender harmony
deflecting love's due.
We, what we are, attract
discordant tunes
but love's baton composes
more than just music

A tuneful and fine write Fay. I might sing it, but the other poets throw dirt at me if I do - literally?! heehee.
Thank you my friend
An anatomy of reticence to allow ones heart to play again in three concise verses.
What a wicked game our past amour has played with us as we age and opportunity becomes scarce.
Your comments honour my efforts and thanking you kindly dear sir.
So true love is love and people are, well people
Ah - -how true my friend that we are but people and often do not let love use its wonderful power.
Yes indeed, who could fault or possibly argue with ya dear Fay...
Perfectly pitched and then some...

Loves baton guided us into the wonder of life.

I agree dear Andy - love's baton plays all we need to know on how to show true affection.
Love exacts loyalty, which makes it a hostage to doubt - which only writers, such as yourself, do so poetically exclaim.
Thank you for this perceptive and very well written comment my friend.
