Sweet Potion.
"Love's gift cannot be given, it just waits
to be accepted." (Anon.)
The suchness of love's fragrant devotion
lies in ways
its needed sweet potion is made.
Being tenderly constant wears well with
most lovers,
without which contentment can fade.
Distrust often sucks strength from good
intentions
for doubt renders efforts inactive.
Thru' constant negligence love will stale
if it counts
much cost into tolerance factor.
Yes the fragrance of love's togetherness
lies a lot
in the way scented solutions are made.

Just love the way you use the language but I think I've said that before - another great work Fay.
Bless you Michael for all your support.
My dear Poetess Fay...

You are so kind Laura and many big thank you's for all your encouragement.
You’re welcome!
The pleasure is all mine!
I admire your writing talent!
I always look forward to read your work!
The words glide with ease!
Music for my “eyes&ears”!
And from some friendships a love emerges to test the hands of time. Great poem Fay.
Yes how true A.P. that some friends learn the secret of knowing the difference and allow love its sway, Thanks for the perceptive comment my friend.
Love the poem and impressed by the quote.
I was taken by the depth of the quote too - thank you so much for your comment and glad you enjoyed the read.
Beautiful write Fay.
To use 'fragrance' in writing about love is not only imaginative, but also romantic. And I do love the last three lines very much.
Another wonderful poem by Fay!!!
