 “Sometimes”(by Joe DiMino)

Sometimes I see love
A juicy, red heart;

Sometimes—love,
Right from the start—

But there are times
Love needs tender
Cultivating—
In those hurt-raised…
In those abused…
Refused love
Now denying;
Sometimes, to bring out love
One needs lots of
Patient
Sighing…

I guess, the lesson—persistence:

It is sometimes
And sometimes
And sometimes
And, after all the sums
Maybe one more time
Will do it—
For always, and not sometimes,
Before quitting applying
I have found
A little more love
Worth
A world
Of trying….
