MATURE LOVE-A POEM


By Michael Walsh ( From Australia) 1976

Not the love of old people,
Not the love that has lingered for years,
... Not the love of two at first sight.

A love which has developed,
A love based on mutual understanding,
A love where each shares all.

Not the love of physical attractions,
Not the love of mental infatuation,
Not the love merely for its own sake.

Mature love is that of heart, of mind,
And most of all, of one's soul.
