Distant Planets



Distant Planets


Love never fully grasped

Planets apart drawn together

Earth and moon


Comforting glow by night

Shaping the day’s waves

As the world turns


This poems speaks to me of the ethereal and intangible nature of love- this mysterious force which cannot be understood or physically held and contained but by some magical magnetic attraction can draw together two distinct individuals and make them inter-dependent. The same allure which provides physical and emotional comfort for the soul by night also dictates how the days will ebb and flow. Perhaps it is the power of love which makes the world go round. On the other hand if I haven't had a glass of wine it is just nonsense.

how nice - to ponder love and poetry with a glass of wine.

Just a few short lines but lots to think on there. I'll pour another glass of wine and read it again
