A Caution For Lovers

by Mark   May 27, 2019


To whom would rush a wound from love, with love:
Let take a caution deep where your wound bleeds;
Perfuse the stream, the flow is flow's behove
To love is not 'in love' without its deeds,
The void will drain without another grief
Why two to bore when one is plentiful,
For portioned love deceives and all to brief
So reason then to heal and heal there full.
But time has half the doctorate of pain
The tested friend is patience met with heart,
And he or she with both is lovers gain
To love as freshest as the springtime start.

So tender yours beneath the lover's rain
Then out the colored bow, shall love again.
