Love Is Seek and Give

Hummingbird flirts over florets,
Until captivates the heart;
Petals glow in jocundity,
Assents to let kiss its bud;  
Bird flutters wings, 
Faster and faster; 
Reaches deeper and deeper, 
Into supple gland,
The bond evolves,  
Intense love between both;
Quenches longing for nectar, 
Serves in exchange, 
Seeks pollen to Germinate;
Said the sages once,
Love is seek and give;
