Between Poem by Barry Middleton

Between



Between the dove and the eagle,
there is a challenge for humanity.
Between the storm and the rainbow,
there is a gentle spring shower.
Between the hurricane and the hush,
there is a harmony on the breeze.
Between desire and fulfillment,
there is the first tender kiss.
Between birth and death,
there is breath, a heartbeat, life.

Thanks Dimitrios, I know the feeling of being busy. It is getting very hard for me to keep up. But I will continue to try.
