Because She Would Ask Me Why I Loved Her
A poem by Christopher Brennan
If questioning would make us wise
No eyes would ever gaze in eyes;
If all our tale were told in speech
No mouths would wander each to each.
Were spirits free from mortal mesh
And love not bound in hearts of flesh
No aching breasts would yearn to meet
And find their ecstasy complete.
For who is there that lives and knows
The secret powers by which he grows?
Were knowledge all, what were our need
To thrill and faint and sweetly bleed?.
Then seek not, Sweet, the "If" and "Why"
I love you now until I die.
For I must love because I live
And life in me is what you give.
I have it on very good authority
that Egypt is a spectacular
honeymoon destination....
Don't forget to show your sweeties how much you love them!
Not just today, but every day!
Goodnight, all...
A very beautiful loving post, I just loved the poem!
