Distance

A Poem by Michael
"

A sonnet about love and distance

"

 

Care not my love, of this distance between
'tis like two hands on arms reaching full wide
though no greater space will ever be seen
I still hold you near, as if by my side


For connected we are, as parts to a whole
with emotions of love, a life blood shared
Distance does nothing to weaken the soul
keep that in mind at times you are scared


A touch on the hand is known body wide
though it's only one hand at times involved
We are the same when our love is applied
love is our touch and distance's problem solved


Together in life our hearts beat as one
two souls entwined, our life-course is run

"Together in life our hearts beat as one
two souls entwined, our life-course is run" -- my favorite lines.


I love the whole picture you painted as you beat as one even during times of separation. This was well done and I loved everything that it spoke of.

Great cadence to this work. The emotions and thoughts expressed are timeless. What beautiful and loving advice when two are seperated they still can 'beat as One'. Beautiful thoughts. Thank you for sharing your warm heart and soul once again. A delight to read this early morning.
Light,
