Time Versus Love

Fay Slimm.

 

Time Versus Love.

 

Time the rabid old monster

wants no permission

to gobble up passion,

knocks back agile wanting

and swallows up bliss

with indifferent non-action.

 

 - - - - - - YET - - - - - -

 

Love the ageless young mistress

smiles at rushed hunger,        

comforts each searcher

who needs some assistance  

to find ease in another     

with frequent undisguised thirst.

              Always my pleasure to share and receive your welcome reviews on my small efforts dear Laura.

            • Doggerel Dave

              Sorry Fay, but love (if indeed that's what we are talking about) old and comfortable is better.
              Love-erly write, though.

              Love is either a desert or a garden, never anything in between. The "ageless young mistress" of which you speak is imaginary, a dream in the mind of a lover, but the "frequent undisguised thirst" surely exists in reality. Love can be eternal if two hearts are in sync. What a beautiful poem for my Sunday respite. Loved it.- Phil A

              Such true words Fay, love can overcome all.

              I liked your poem. most loved lines
              Love the ageless young mistress

              smiles at rushed hunger,

              comforts each searcher

              who needs some assistance

              to find ease in another

              with frequent undisguised thirst.
