ways of approaching

 I would bring my life complete before you ...

When I summon intellect it is to the melody
of this longing. Thy hand,
Beloved, restores the chords of this longing.
Here, in the thirst that defines Beauty,
I have found kin.

---Robert Duncan. 

it would not be here if you were here.
what is remembered is love.

---ken irby

 When memory is of the future
then we may speak of fear
 and sharpening and
of love too more than of the fallen fruit of the form that is calling and to that lovely form

 ---John Riley.
