We all know how love begins.
But how does it continue to thrive,
To grow,
To blossom and bear fruit?
How does it provide the sustenance necessary
For the requisite comfort and companionship?
How does it nurture the necessary magic
To soothe and summon
To touch and heal?
Perhaps we need to study the hydrology of love.
How does it access the great reservoirs of love
Hidden deep within?
How does it build the necessary aqueducts and cisterns
To collect love in times of abundance
For use in times of drought,
While understanding the need
To maintain and sustain
The living body of love,
Eventually tapping into the deepest aquafers.
To keep love nourished and afloat forever.
