The Elusive Mystery Of Love

Will the mystery of love ever be solved? Should it be? We want to be coupled in joy and ecstasy until we want to be alone to find ourselves, but just for a moment until we are lonely again. Such is the push and pull of human nature to want to be seen and accepted for who we are.

Free

The dark sky beholds
Many a fluttering drop
Gliding through the air
To meet their final spot

Each one perfectly different
Their shapes transcending the norm
They celebrate their uniqueness
In each of their own form

As the darkness envelopes each snowflake
Its freedom soon to be gone
On the blackened wet earth below
It sings its final song

What beauty each one held
Soon to be forgot
Its majestic intertwined pattern
Is a beauty that cant be bought

Like friends that flutter through our lives
Their memories soon will fade
As their journey takes a different turn
Than the path our lives have made

Some we never knew at all
Others we hoped would see
What wonderment they could bring to us
If they only could be free....
