Winnow The Wind
Soft as the cobwebs that dance the vine.
Moist as the droplets that dew the rose.
Warm as the first taste of ruby red wine
Is love that once planted, sturdily grows.
Harsh as a gale that splits bare branch.
Cold as an ocean that breeds aloneness .
Hard as the silence smothering romance
Is love that once wilted, fun over-throws
Winnow the wind, divide chaff from grain.
Rediscover lost gold, come love me again

Very very good Fay
I like the" taste of
Ruby red wine"
I have a poem
About memory
From youth, it has
The line, "memory
Flows as I take a
Sip Of blood red wine"
A great read fay with some really great lines.
THANKS FOR SHARING FAY ~ As we grow older we begin to experience some of the extremes of love ~ but we never fully understand them. Love grows and love wilts ~ but we never (fully) understand WHY. I have learned to enjoy it while it lasts ~ but not to suffocate (in misery) when it dies ~ but to learn positives from the experience ~ and move on as gracefully and gratefully as possible ! Yours B.
