Love And Lightning Poem by Barry Middleton

Love And Lightning



lightning strikes only once
in any given spot

we are led to believe love
can tie a lasting knot

science has no evidence
that either is the truth

both claims defy analysis
just fantasies of youth

the physicist will testify
lightning can strike twice

foolish lovers learn in time
love extracts a price

love ends in bitterness
if not in cold deceit

lightning surely finds a fool
refusing to retreat
