Love Has a faceA Poem by James Grizzly Jones
A smooth wind blows then a pretty bird sings at your window
Cool nights and bright stars set the mood for the love making of two souls They hold hands as they walk on the city streets stoping traffic almost getting hit by cars beep beep She snuck out the back door to meet him on the back porch at the risk of getting hung or poked with a pitch fork and burned with a hot torch On his death bed before he died a day later his last dying words to her were not I love you but I'll see you later It's funny how swans mate for life A husband will die to be with his wife And even the slave owner didn't think twice he fell in love with a slave and left his wife You walk by it everyday and you see it in many places that's when it became clear to you that love has many faces © 2013 James Grizzly Jones |
