Love abegging
Love abegging
Runs from pillar to post,
From door to door,
From heaven to earth ,
To the under world beneath the sea,
Knocking but responds none.
Love implores,
'Who is there to hug me in' .
Love is no more on this pollution loaded earth ,
Nor is it in the dusty moon ,
Nor is it in the so called heahen.
Love is banished permanent.
Rather, love's role is not felt any more.
Ears do not listen to music of giggling rivers,
Eyes refuse to see how cute is a forest deer,
Skin touches wake up fear.
Romantic consumerism is the only lover.
I, a poor ever poet , beseech,
' Love, do not go,
Let there be a hidden , permanent flow
Of your caring current .
On love I am ever reticent.
Love abegging
Is a curse;
Life is then a farce.
