Bwhen Shall I Learn How To Love? #2 This Week Poem by Barry A. Lanier

When shall I learn how to love?
Love for love, and moment's sweet
Breath to breast, when eyes meet
In a paradise, yet so deep
Sweet waters, that I long to keep
Flowers blossoming, filling the air
Nectar dripping, from everywhere
Two burning flaxes, of equal light
Flames that burn, throughout the night
Picking your flowers, for beauty's sake
Giving you pleasures, of a bouquet
Love that laces, the summer's green
Love that makes, flower's sweet in spring
Swelling and sinking, in faint caress
Staying with time, standing the test
When shall I learn how to love
As I do in my dreams?
Only loving as one loves
Every precious thing
