LOVE IN LOVE



(A 2021 Special Valentine Poetry Collection)



Editor's Note:


In the word of Robert Frost, we love the things we love for what they are. 

In consummate concordance with this age-long apothegm, a group of poets decided to give the 2021 Valentine Day a poetic essence, literarily out of their love for what it is. 

Exploring the theme of Love, these eight poets and poetry lovers, in pursuance of their ardency, lent their voices, by donating stanzas of poetic condiments, which congealed into a concise masterpiece, entitled "Love in Love"

In its third edition now, this Special Valentine Poetry Collection which started in 2019 contains these romantic lines of epopees by these muses and inamoratos.

Compiled and edited by Izunna Okafor, this (though very concise) collection also holds the message and unfold the expressions of these gallant poets to and for the world, the lovers and the Love itself, as the 2021 Valentine Day stages.


They write:


Pure as crystal

Mature and unskeptical

Love beyond love

Love in love


And like a molten gold

My love oozes warmth

Even in the cold we are

Love in love!

 

Life they say is a proverb

Master this verb, it's an action

Echo in echo out

Love is a lieutenant 


Love is also natural

It comes from any direction

Waters the hearted 

Renders the powerful powerless

Love in love


Love is life

In its season, all thrive

When it seizes, there's strive

Love is when you lend a helping hand


Like Italian fine wine

You taste sweeter with age

I look at you, and with praise

My heart is filled


Grateful to the Great Universe for the gift of you

Soothing gaze of the moon...you

Fresh like the morning dew

Soft work, this, Love in Love is! 


Hence on this lonely path

May we cling softly to ourselves

And make peaceful vow

Of everlasting bliss


May the rain and sun

Water & shine on this garden of love

Gently, as it grows like a nation


When we sing of love... 

we sing of a mother and her child

we sing of a book and its reader

we sing of a child and his toy;

we sing of God and mankind

We sing of many things that have feelings,

we sing of hearts and prayers,

flowers, wishes, Aspirations and Lovers...

Because love has a different name to different

people,

But it goes with the same language everywhere.


Love in love

White, red, green, colourless...

Its colours and symbols

Love in Love


Love afresh, love in the air

Love above, love in the under

Love beyond love

Love in Love.
