Love, At Last...

If the ground should quake,
If the sky should fall,
If the rain lets up,
If the plants all die,
There is one thing left.

If we lose sight,
If we can't speak,
If the bow breaks,
on the last tree,

we won't cry
or resign,
for we know

there's one 
thing left:

love.

Dear Tatyana, Even though I guessed at the last, it brought a smile to my mush. Well done. Is there a name for this form, 5x5, 4x4,3x3,2x2, 1x1 ? Love Alan
