Thrity-Seven?

Question

I was going through my books and rediscovered a short poem by my favorite poet, Rod McKuen. Can you relate?

"You may puzzle at me
when I tell you
that your not loving me
is the most love
I have ever had.

"But anyone who's
given in to loving
will know and understand."

Answer 1

not yes, but hell yes ! what a way to put it!

Answer 2

Rod McKuen had some interesting insights. One I especially remember is something like "Don't let the thunder bother you; it's only Mr. God's trombones."

Answer 3

Not at the moment, but I enjoy being reminded of Rod McKuen...I actually have an album of his, reciting poems, with the sound of waves in the background! lol...yes, I am that age! lol Thanks for the memories...and check back on your old msg. progress is being made!
