Love Itself
The light came through the window
Straight from the sun above
And so inside my little room
There plunged the rays of Love
In streams of light I clearly saw
The dust you seldom see
Out of which the Nameless makes
A Name for one like me
I’ll try to say a little more…
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door
Then Love Itself
Love Itself was gone
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance
I’ll try to say a little more…
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door
Then Love Itself
Love Itself was gone
Then I came back from where I’d been
My room, it looked the same
But there was nothing left between
The Nameless and the Name
All busy in the sunlight
The flecks did float and dance
And I was tumbled up with them
In formless circumstance
I’ll try to say a little more…
Love went on and on
Until it reached an open door
Then Love itself
Love Itself was gone
Love Itself was gone
Leonard Cohen

Lovely work as always – you create such magic – a wonderful world of dreams.
(Hm! Not sure I like the new layout on RB)
Thank you dear Lin…sigh…I guess I’m a bit of a dreamer ;)
and I really don’t mind the new layout to be honest… I’m sure there will be a few changes to it until it’s fine tuned…just takes a little getting used to…I’ve changed over so that it sinks in for when it becomes final ;)
I’ve not forgotten about your dragonfly books either gorgeous…promise xxx
