In search of


 In search of that distant chord 

John Clare Stokes 


We are drawn to the Song of Songs perchance 

to find the love we are seeking

We  turn to Yeats and Browning thinking

in some sonnet surely they are hidden We cue the Bach and even the Floyd 

for in the chord certainly is found

And yet we have this inexplicable drawing

Near, yet desperately just beyond reach
