In a Word

Our lives begin and end with a word.

I do, I will, I promise, I give. Amen.

The Greeks would know whatI mean:

Beginning and end. Alpha and Omega.

Crystal and clear. Nothing absurd.

Life is a quest for words plucked from time.

I love, you love, he, she, it loves.

Only words will spell you what I mean,

Something simple, Amo, Amas, Amat.

A mixture from another tongue

Andlife goes on because of that.
