Today’s poem is mostly sweet, a little melancholy.

The Joys of Love

The joys of love
Seem like a moment or two.
The pain of love
Endures the whole life through.a

Your eyes kissed mine.
I saw the love in them shine.
You brought me heaven right then,
When your eyes kissed mine.

My love loves me.
And, ah, the wonders I see:
A rainbow shines in my window,
My love loves me.

But now he’s gone
Like a dream that fades into dawn;
But the words stay locked in my heartstrings
My love loves me.

~Giovanni Martini
