Analysis of Arc of Loving
Charles Fields II 1955 (Fort Bragg, NC)
It's a love dance
as lovers we do in life,
Finding peace, only
when we are both are free
To share our loving selves
with an intensity,
Which we discover
when we learn
To free each other,
spiritually
it feels so
very special
we would not want
to have it any other way ...
It’s a beautiful ballet,
it's poetry in motion...
Emotions flowing
with hearts growing
so warmly,
Between us
as our seams are joined
our worlds blending
naturally,
as our differences become
of less importance...
Then, suddenly
they're gone,
Leaving us calmer
and more reassured,
Eyes open to
a new life with freedom,
Allowing us
to show each other love
With healthy respect,
devotion
Growing continually
until it blossoms
Into the loving truth
to become the ritual
Of all we do...
What else
could you expect ...
When the person
you feel love for
Is working
a special magic,
Just for you
