With Valentine's Day coming up this month, I thought I would share this image and poem, both my original works. I hope you enjoy.
Confirmed, affirmed and verified
Referred, deferred or put aside
Disclosed in full, or in part
The secrets of the human heart
Cannot be analyzed or sampled
No protocol or test procedure run
Can ever under sky or sun
Explain the love in humankind
No forensic evidence you will find
Of what is in the soul or mind
So let us stay outside the box
And not place love
'neath chains and locks
Confirmed affirmed and verified?
No! In faith, love is justified.
