True Love

How true is love
 In the morning breeze
 Whence stirs the leaves
 And sings the bird amidst willows

How true is love
When she weaves
Her fingers slipping
Between the threads


How true is love
When he to his
Darling debates
Calling out her name in the distance

How true is love
Glancing in the mirror
Catching a glimpse
Of beauty beholden

How pure is love
Born out of desire
Fondling it's fire
Waiting for it to kindle

there is true love where lover and beloved lives without any conditions through ultimate sacrificing each for other; nice to read your poetic diction
