Love Refuses To Take Form Poem by Terence George Craddock
Love Refuses To Take Form
love refuses to take form
refuses to configure into appealing shapes
refuses to take composing elements
transcending shape shifting into heart yearning love
no design foundation coherent can weave
poles apart thoughts minds hearts lives into lovers
no poem pattern romantic passionate can rhyme
sing love throughout enduring time for two souls
lacking spark igniting fuels
can never flame stone hearts
cannot love burn
the moon shines
no mystery illuminous
beaming love light
dark sky a starless veil spans all horizons
broods in void abstinence trees leafless
stand in naked indifference to winter wind gusts
wind gusts stir spread desolation silences
in a landscape love discards refuses to habitat
season of love refuses to enter this loveless realm

I am so humbled and honoured. And to be honest you have done a better job than I did. You have expanded the feeling, emotions and the mood. I love your version. Thanks for the honor!
It was my honour and privilege to share your poetic journey for a few short footprints along the way.
I saved a copy of your poem 'No Love Poem' in my files. I was intrigued by your theme, style and a few word choices, and decided to attempt a poetic journey in your footsteps, staying faithful to your form and thoughts.
