A love poem without a single
word of love?
Write about dripping tap, the layered dust.
Write about a normal day, the usual noise,
But as you write these words your thoughts
will not keep up.
Between two useful words one
thought trembles–
Not a word of love , just a thought about
a petal in the rain.
Not a word of love just a thought about
the cloud veiled moon.
Not a word of love just a thought about
the dessert you ate,
Not a word of love just a thought about
the afternoon of rest.
That’s how you wrote a love poem
without a single word of love!
You do not always have to write of love
in a love poem,
As you write the words your thoughts
will merge with the ink.
And you have written a love poem you
didn’t even think.
The thought trembling between two
words is a wordless–love?
