Love At A Distance, Chaste And Pure Poem by Margaret Alice

Love At A Distance, Chaste And Pure



Listened to the song “To Dream The Impossible
Dream” - for the first time registering the words,
to love at a distance, chaste and pure; I love truth,
wisdom and integrity, beauty, honour and loyalty,
searching for these beloved values in something to
love at a distance - psychologists say love for others
is based on love for self

I’m not impressed with my moral prowess, can’t love
myself so much; people preaching principles are cold,
overbearing, scary and judgmental, love for morality
excludes love for humanity it seems - pondering the
problem – who or what to love at a distance, chaste
and pure; who personifies these values, to be
loved at a distance, reaching for the

Unreachable star?

COMMENTS OF THE POEM

I agree with Joe, love even at a distance must be with someone that makes us happy. And love at a distance can become romantic, and lead to other happy things in our lives. Love at a distance does not have to be reaching for the impossible star, but reaching inside our hearts to remind us that there is something worth getting up everyday for. This poem is very well written, and says a lot. Internet relationships, pen pals, and those who communicate through their newspaper's personals column, or those that use dating services, all have a love from a distance. Just who or what that love is right off, is not clear, until they get into a little more. It can make the heart happy to know that there is a someone waiting to talk to you, to hear from you. That is love at a distance. A 10 for this and thank you so mucj for sharing. Love & hugs, Barbara
