Of Love (National Poetry Writing Month 2026 #15)   Leave a comment

In a cold night's sleep, I dreamed of love
Truly, I know so little of love

An infant safe in a parent's arms
For the first time, feels the warmth of love

A bride, clad in a brilliant white
Smiles as she makes a vow of love

A man stands in front of a cold slab
Weeping, knowing the absence of love

A cat curls up in a child's lap
Vibrates to the frequency of love

The life leaks out from the young man's wrist
The water red, the color of love

A crooner sings a sweet melody
Bodies sway to the rhythm of love

Some day, as I tread along this path
I'll find my understanding of love
