Little Hawk - Thank you. I have written out your very eloquent and very true definition of Love into my book of readings and quotes, so that I can read it over again.

One of my favourite poems, that has had pride of place for some years in my little book of quotes, is the poem by Leo Marks, which to me conveys that same essence you speak of: a positive, powerful, eternal interconnectedness between every one and every thing, so much so that they are One. That, to me, is Love.

The life that I have
Is all that I have,
And the life that I have is yours.
The love that I have
Of the life that I have
Is yours, and yours, and yours.
A sleep I shall have,
A rest I shall have,
Yet death will be but a pause,
For the peace of my years
In the long, green grass
Will be yours, and yours, and yours.


With Love
