Man has conquered air and space
The vast reaches of open water
Ocean depths and icy steppes,
The frozen wastelands,
The farmers' plains
And sky-scratching mountains.
Earth contains no explosive eureka moment.
But the fire of a woman's tears,
The ache of a thousand miles
Of physical distance bridged only by
The power of words, the clarity of feeling,
This cannot be quenched by other than
Your arms, your lips,
The tapestry of emotions.
