A Butterfly Quintain

Devotion  
has a duty 
protecting, caring, loving, 
those who belong to them each day 
affection 

fondness 
the true essence 
of love is never vaporized , 
it is steamed into the fabric 
passion 

Love 
with allegiance 
fidelity, loyalty, piety, 
an action unrequired but given 
free
