Love Can Stay

A diamond atop gold
For a love that grows not old
That appears much as the dawn
One might fear will not go on.

Some effort will it take
And some hearts will surely break
But the better it will get
If it lasts until sunset.

I suspect if we could, we would not be posting our humble rhymes for free on the internet. LOL

Thank you! No way to compete with Frost, however.
