Poem

 Love Keeps Coming

Love comes out of the blue

You cannot find it if you look in the shoe

Or under the buckle

Or between the laces

Or in the sock

Or in the grains of sand stuck in the toenail

Love is in the soul

Love is the goal

But it’s stuck in a place with no boundaries or face

Love is delicious if sucked on or nibbled

But you cannot find love

Where ever it’s dribbled

Love is everywhere

Love is abundant and wide

Love comes out of the blue

Like a blue heron glide

It comes often and it feels sometimes never

Love will come for you

Love is so clever

I have been asking for 40 years will it ever?

But was I aware enough to bite the bullet?

Did I see love the 40 times it flew towards me?

Skimming my mullet?

Now I am old and a man says he loves me.

Am I wise enough to dig a hole and root my feet and see?

Relationship is accomplishment and

accomplishment takes staying.

Digging in deep to a quote a good saying.

Will I dig down deeper?

Will I have the wisdom to know a keeper?
