PrintPoem – An Act of the Will (By Donal Mahoney)
An Act of the Will
If love’s real, not
the puppy kind, it’s
not just a feeling
but an act of the will
a constant giving
whether one
feels like it or not.
After many years
you don’t know why
you’re doing it
or why It must be done.
Two begin as grapes
purple with passion
unaware you’ll be
raisins wrinkling
at the end.
