A Love Poem

By D. J. ReddallPublished 12 months ago Updated 12 months ago 1 min read

We are always seeking alterations

Of face and form; of wardrobe, diet, character

Of debts and dreams and daring demands

Of habits and customs and traces of yesterday

Love, if it has any meaning

Always means yes and amen

To every freckle and fart

Abide, beloved, flawed work of art
