Do I Love You?

Do I love you as yesterday?
When springtime's urgent rush
Swept my eager heart away
And dashed it on the cruel
Rocks of youthful ecstasy
When repaired by summers sun
To run more gently with the sway
And bear the joyful fruits of love
That fills the happy hours of play
Into the glories of life's autumn
With each contented golden day
Now winters time is precious
And I love you as in yesterday
But in a different more tranquil way

This poem does have a nice flow and I like the topic/question: Do I love you as yesterday? Something, of course, that we can never quite do, we can only love you as we do today. Delicious words in your poem, but the meaning got a little lost midway through.

I really, truly loved this. It takes true talent to be able to put love into words, which most poets/writers can't. This was marvelous. Wonderfully beautiful.

Beautifully written. A short history of love as it changes during a lifetime. Thank you.

True love. Loving more and more as time goes by. Terrifically traditional, something I am sure most of us can love. Glad I found your poetry.
