The Hardest Lesson Learned

By: Raymond J. Denzel

affairs of the heart
can not be wished
once upon a star

the planets must
align in
the right order

birds must sing
in the same key

bees making honey
never sweeter

sunrise most perfect
sunset brings hope
for more to come

walks by the ocean
two sets of prints
leaving their mark

thoughts to be shared
but never thought

searching the corners
universal emotion
sense of loss
sense of gain

joust at windmills
never give up
somewhere
sometime
someone
not imagined
will come calling

    Thanks, Cory! I thought so too. I'll def tell the poet. Btw, I tried to find where to write an ode to a rose, but could not. That poem of yours was well loved.
