The Wind In the Oak
It is the wind which bends the Oak
as it bends to the wind -it spoke
"I feel your power, you mighty wind."
So is the same with love and men.
No strength abounds that love can't bend.
Beware you then the coil will blow
and let the wind through branches flow.
Let your heart bend as at the bough
never question when or how.
For love is love and meant too know.
For the tree which cannot bend
will be uprooted by the wind
there it will lay and wither away
to rot and fester and decay.
If giving to love, the heart must sway.
