Not Love Perhaps (poem by A S J Tessimond) This is not love, perhaps Love that lays down its life that many waters cannot quench nor the floods drown But somethng written in lighter ink said in a lower tone, something perhaps, especially our own A need, at times, to be together and talk And then finding we can walk More firmly through dark narrow places And meet more easily nightmare faces A need to reach out, sometimes, hand to hand And then find Earth a less alian land A need for alliance to defeat The whisperers at the corner of the street A need for Inns on roads, Islands in seas Halts, for discoveries to be shared Maps checked, notes compared A need, at times, of each for each Direct as the need of throat for tongue and speech!
