Issue 9:

Cover Image By Rich Lam
Issue number 9 - like love potion # 9 - entices our readers to fall in love. At first, the topic of love felt like a departure from the more pressing global issues we have been focused on for the past six years, but we soon discovered that at the root of both conflict and the potential for a resolution, is love. We plan to dive in deep and let our dialog on this topic leave no stone unturned. With this goal in mind, we are offering this as the first issue open to our readers. We want to hear your stories and share them. You can email us with your Love Stories or post them directly on our Facebook Page. You can also join our movement by posting images on Instagram with the hashtag #ExperimentswithLove.

You Are Worthy Of Being Loved as The Day Breaks

By Janne Robinson

Janne-Daybreak

I hope he holds your hand in the daylight

walking down small town streets

where everyone knows his name

I hope he introduces you

grinning

you’re worthy of staying up late

till three am

talking

sitting on hardwood floors

I hope he joins you

to drink a bottle of opened red wine

with a cork that reads some old fashioned name

sitting on cement blocks outside the only bar in this town

undressing your soul

slowly

first

I hope when you leave

there is no fear in your heart

that he will call

that he will think of you

that you know it was special and sweet

and you don’t doubt for a moment

your name is still on his lips

his brain

his red beating heart

you’re so worthy darling

of being loved as the day breaks

and life churns on
