WHEN LOVE CAME IN
I had just returned from the war,
Where I almost got killed.
I learned we must love one another
or die. I needed to find a woman to love
who will love me back.
As soon as we met, you embraced me
with all your charm, beauty and wisdom.
I was immediately swept away by a crushing
wave of bliss. I almost drowned in sheer delight,
transformed by your euphoric presence
of aliveness, kindness and compassion.
Love came in, grabbing me by the collar, screaming: THIS IS IT!
