Finding our own inner Lover....

This poem was rolling around
my head today.

It is printed on the World's Greatest Lovers
site



Inner Lover


Between the Clutter of voices,
reverbing through the night
so constant I have to ask
is there no quiet,
I wonder, who it is I am.
On the beach, the bathers sit,
arching themselves in sand and water.
Even the seagulls have their way
through the air they breathe in and out
and call their own.
Where is the silent passage to myself?
Deeply, deeply, how I swarm above
and below it yet never in it.
oh for the gallant hour
I find me.

December 1976
from Loving Together self published 1976
