Meditations on Love
Our smiles trickle down
To the world beyond us;
They call it love,
That thread hanging the world together
Suspended in air- like a balloon
Rocking gracefully in cosmos
In
tandem with the music of dreams.
Merry hearts and minds worship love,
While bowed heads and downcast hearts hunt
for it.
Was it invented by man?
Or it just sprang instantaneously into
life?
Does its hold transform rattling discords
of life
Into a beautiful symphony?
Whose master is it?
