Gypsy love




How do you love the gypsies?
The lovers of many a love
They of a thousand interests
And hundreds of missions

They of many horses
Stallions of many colours
Hues from blacks to whites

Committed to a million journeys
Travelling through dark waterways
Discreet alleys and dangerous woods

They that thrive and enjoy
The comfort of a trillion homes
Abodes on nests and caves
Owning them not, leaving naught trace

Destinations unknown, but arrived at nonetheless
Reasons unspoken, yet understood, intrinsically
Strings unattached, albeit there, unmistakably

Songs sang and unsung, in a single breath
Memories made and unmade, instantaneously
It’s as if they never were but are, still
As though gone but their presence behind, left

Like a vivid dream, tears still rolling
A beautiful sunset, darkness setting in fast
A lovely summer, petals lie scattered
A full moon, a false light
