Ottava Rima Lost To Love

Tasting loss of leaves before the Dagar winds
Its tracks of his mean cuts through her heart and trees

could somehow bar twice his ice before it rends
and strips her bare till she falls unto her knees

She would find the strength that willingly defends
his faulted love that comes and goes but never frees

If not his deepest empathy, Mine and thine
to mend her broken branches, we must entwine!
