________Love Perhaps_________
________Love Perhaps_________
Like the truth,
the essential self
is a jewel of ...
many facets
At the jewel heart of
...the many truths
there is but,
one truth
at the jewel centre of
... your many selves
there is but,
one face
and the essence of
... the one truth and
... the one face
is,
perhaps,
love.

I liked the apparent simplicity masking complexiy here. Enjoyed reading it several times, and finding new meanings each time, mirroring the differentfaces of the jewel - clever. Wasn't keen on the use of ellipses here - it hindered rather than eased the flow - but I'm pretty sure that's just me, so feel free to ignore the crticism.
Have a feeling I'll be reading this one again.
Cheers

| Less filling tastes great, this is a very nice poem. It goes down better than a frosty one. I agree with silkpoet. |

| This poem could be in a book of famous quotes about love. I found it very moving and profound. Thankyou a delightful read! |

| Very nice...much said w/o a lot of fancy, elaborate fillers...my kind of poem. |

| Simple in its meaning, but put across very well...fantastic piece of a questioning inner philosophy. |
