A Soft, Sweet Love Poem by Alan Buckholtz

A Soft, Sweet Love



Each moment of hope
a lifetime of despair
I starved on the empty plate
of my heart in disrepair

Roses of empty dreams
filled the hollows of my empty nest
each a weeping color
on the canvas of my quest

Tentative whispers
teasing hopeful ears
in the self-portrait
of the mirror of my tears

Scrape my scarring sorrow
my loving God above
and find for me tomorrow
a soft, sweet love
