Love's Reflections

By: Michael David Coffey

Love's reflections in a shady pond
Beneath swaying willows of memories
Of lovers gone, almost forgotten
Other lives and other places

A different time
Now flooding back in small pieces
Vignettes of loving interludes
Between the mean streets and
angry relationships

Sweet moments in quietness
Clear images of fine moments, in love
Lost in the scramble to conform
In survival's race to extinction

Today, those short scenes are one on one
Projecting a collage of perfect love
Passion in kaleidoscope- mirrored
in a quiet shady pool, under willow trees
Love's reflections... in green solitude
