My mother used to be a hopless romantic, and I grew up with the notion that I would fall in love in May and marry in May, alas that was not so.
Lets sit a while and ponder on on the happy days of this month gone by. Of love and happiness that have touched our hearts, where we can keep them warm until our next May comes.
Is it sensible, does it make sense!.. Love is all that matters, thats sensible.
Is it sensible, does it make sense!.. Love is all that matters, thats sensible.

Love that never told can be
For the gentle wind does move,silently,invisibly
I told my love, I told my love,
I told her all my heart
Trembling cold, in ghastly fear
Ah! She did depart
Soon as she was gone from me
A traveler came by
Silently,invisibly
He took her with a sigh.
Loves Secrets by William Blake.
In some of his very strange and outlandish paintings we can see figures intertwined in the art of love and passion .. I believe love never dies its forever! Its one of the gifts god gave us that is free!. We are free to love , and choose who we love and when and where we fall in love, an everlasting emotion that is always ours.
