In What Of This One Life's Gift Poem by james watkin

In What Of This One Life's Gift



In what of this one life's gift
Is left all to unwrap
Of the prismatic, has in truth
Been held up to entrap.

For what of these reactions
From each other diverge.
Love's and hate's, in a spectrum
Of feelings that emerge.

In being first blindingly struck
Flame-arrowed, ice-sharpened
To melt, or of heart, be chilled
With that all must contend.
