Allegory of Love

Allegory of Love Dressed in sombre garb the chrysalis lies Unaware of its destiny, the world without Watching in expectation. Nature sings its song To the amorphous form within, and transformation Begins. What once was bland existence now Takes on a warmer hue; where once Was sameness, now vital difference appears. In time the insistent urge of nature Transcends the quiescent spirit within and Iridescent glory is born, to shine and Light up the world and dance the Eternal dance. But nature tires of its Work and turns away from the vibrant Form, and it withers and dulls, spent. And in time hope dies.
