"Love is the glue that makes us stick" by Marydel Rosenfield Love is the glue that makes us stick That holds us together through thin and thick Love is the yeast that makes us rise To the occasion and fills with surprise Love is the power that helps us stay The course when we enter the fray Love is the force that keeps us on track That sends us on missions and brings us back Love is intangible and also invisible And sometimes positively risible Being in love is a human emotion Entraps like a mud flat, engulfs like the ocean As fish love the water and birds love the air Love tugs at our heartstrings and makes us a pair. About the Author Marydel Rosenfield (nee Coolidge) grew up in Bangor, Maine, the daughter of a forester; she was an only child and bookworm. She always loved playing around with words (learned "The Jabberwocky" in third grade; plays Scrabble not bridge). Her favorite living poet is Billy Collins. She lived in Riverdale (NW Bronx) from 1950 - 2006 with her architect husband; they summered in Maine (east Penobscot Bay region). Her favorite things are saiiing, music, three grown children and two grandchildren. Now living permanently on Deer Isle ME, she and her husband have been uproariously married for 59 years; he married her for her 1939 Ford convertible with a rumble seat. | | | |
