Necessity being the mother of invention that she is, (no pre-planned, prepared in advance writings) I am going to share two poems that I wrote in college. One today and one tomorrow. Today’s is the shorter of the two, and it (ironically) hung on the wall of our favorite bar in town. 

Thou art mine,

I am thine

in everlasting harmony 

for all we need to sense

is just the wonder and

the beauty of,

this great expanse and constancy

the fitting of our minds

and bodies

into oneness,

into giving love.
