Cathy Ross, a favorite contributor to the NESTER, returns with a poem about relationships. Why do some couples last despite the odds? And after all that is written on the subject, is any more valid than the horoscope? Perhaps what is fortunate and true is that much of what holds us together is a wonderful mystery.

STAR-CROSSED
for David
by Cathy Ross
You are truly a Pisces my love,
swimming serenely through life,
calm and steady,
saying it’ll be ok
and sounds good to me.
I am a true Gemini,
darting in two directions,
never sure which one is best,
saying wait, what
and I’ve got a new idea.
You are deliberate, methodical.
You study maps
and follow directions.
I am impulsive, whimsical.
I dash ahead
and double back.
You read the fine print,
I read between the lines.
I am seldom early,
you are seldom late.
How astrologically unsuited we are.
How happy we have been.
