Lovers

My writing group has been experimenting with original forms of poetry. See an explanation on our blog, with subsequent posts of original poetry by the members.

Inspired by the words of Rumi, here is an original form poem I wrote. Check out another one I wrote called Inner Voice, at the blog link.

Lovers

Lovers don't finally meet somewhere. They're in each other all along.
Lovers comfortable together in silence, they
don't need words to communicate. They
meet as one, eyes locked in gaze with resolve.
Somewhere inside there is a familiar reverberation
they're connected, spirit and soul
in search of a song, wandering
Each one knows they heard the tune before
Others listen and see.  It is clear
all the melodies are between them.
Along the harmonious journey, a lovers' song.
