Love's Mysteries


Poetry Jam


Love's Mysteries

Young flames grow fast igniting
with no thought to what might burn....no mystery at all!

Some flames burn long and strong but life's fire is doused
with the water of death....life's mystery!

Many flames burn strong but
with time run out of fuel or air...why is a mystery!

A flame may never really start but just sit and smolder
with out using the available emotions...mysterious!

Mature love is always in the air but waiting for flames
with energy to make a solid landing...mystery solved?

No, not at all!
