FALL OF LOVE


At first it begins slowly,
A steady weightless fall.
Then it becomes quicker,
It makes you feel proud and tall.

The fall of love is good,
It does not hurt a bit.
In fact it makes you feel better,
It helps to lessen life’s grit.

Love is a two-way thing,
It has to be to make it work.
When you hear wedding bells ring,
You know it is because of this human quirk.

The fall of love feels nice,
It could tame a wild beast.
So when you feel the sting of falling rice,
Know that you have been given one of god’s feasts.


-Me

LOVE LETTERS, UNMAILED

Your hand
brushes my hair
and little bells
jump
in the air startling
me so that I
cling to you for fear of
falling up into the sky.

The touch of
your fingers
grazing mine
delicate as
a single drop of wine
in a crystal goblet.
Rolling it round,
I savor it
on my tongue,
try to
make it last
forever.

The words
I
love
you
form
in the air
and melt.

Your palm
against
my cheek,
light as
a snowflake.

-Eve Merriam



Act your shoe size.
