Love is the seeking of a way of life
A way that cannot be sought alone
Poetry is the residence of all spiritual and physical things
Love is the transmitting of the acceptances of the things we find whilst we seek
Poetry is the blending of both love and art

Love is the giving of life; it is not charity; which is the giving of things
Poetry is the giving of self; it is the taking and giving of beauty
When combined; love and poetry colludes to turn on the light of our inner folds
Done so with the appointed awareness of being in the presence of Source
