Love's Promises

Audrey is a poet, classical singer and voice teacher, recovering attorney and licensed psychotherapist.

My #26 for National Poetry Month

if each day you find

me, tangled in

music and words,

bits of me enmeshed in their web

i will find you too.

if each day you smile

at me

presenting love

on your lips,

my own will return

the favor soon enough

for i know

all we need

begins and ends here.

Love and attention are always good themes. To have them centered in your poem is even better.

Wonderful poetic thoughts. Audrey I have been trying to keep up and even putting 3 or 4 poems nicely numbered in my poetry blog but despite keeping up my own way I am glad it ends tomorrow. The journey as usual has been exciting.
