LOVE RENEWED

 

 

LOVE RENEWED

 

In plenary states of disarray

with little favouring fortitude

they journeyed on with lonely thoughts

as distant cow bells rang.

 

They quietly spoke in tones of ease

and with unshakable esteem

by firm and natural impulses

their discomposure soon subdued.

 

With celibate discretion gone

they strayed from narrow trodden paths

the renascence of love once lost

renewed unseen in ecstasy.
