Love, to give

Alan R

 

Warm afternoons

I'm one with the memories of you

This vibrant city center 

But you're in London today

Part of me as well

In the golden cozy 

Of the evening bar lights 

I think of your face

Belongings are festive

And I think that I have

Alot of love in me, to give 

 

Fragrance of magnolia 

I'm reminded of how you laugh

This indecisive spring rain

But you're in Berlin today

The matte petals cover my sky

Like the sound of your laughter

Fills my heart

And tells me to live

And I think I have

Alot of love in me, to give

 

Freshly drenched grass

I'm reminded of your focussed mind

This cold, rainy night

But you're in Boston today

Drops shine like emerald poison 

Melancholy drowns in them

The stern in your voice 

Recenters my gravity 

Your eyes know how to forgive 

And I think I have

Alot of love in me, to give

 

-Al

      As I first read this I took it for a romantic love poem then it became evident it was for more than one person it is touching in its tenderness and care.
