La Recette De L'Amour

Love, 
is like a dish
of the finest 
haute cuisine,
prepared by equals,
to be shared, 
égales

There is no
chef de l'amour
in this kitchen of love,
there are only,
les deux amants
neither one is
le patron, 
waiting
to be served,
they are always,
les deux serveurs

The recipe
may be different
for each pair of chefs,
but les ingrédients
are always, 
the same
and it
must always be
prepared daily,
so it can be 
servi frais,
as it can't be 
frozen and saved, 
for another
day
