The Best
re-Joycing
Best out of love with
you
best out of love with
me
Our love’s not in a light attire*.
Could not I just jubilate?
Within my hand I **
hold your’s again!
I will and forever I
will remember
stanza seventeen.
There is no -mind you -
word to make you mine again
It’s fine. I can’t amend.

all ** to and owed to James Joyce: Chamber Music.
Because I love his movement 17 the most I had a little love affair with it.

devine writing (jocoseriously) I too love Chamber Music and this somewhat sad but beautiful poem.
