[Dream Gate] [Poet Glas]

Work of Love (for Kenndra)

No storm will last forever; arguments die
But love does not, nor passion fade away
So long as we remember hope and try
To keep the flame awake by work and play.

For love is more than just a feeling strong
And short, but rather it requires care
And effort towards the one for whom we long.
'Tis more than just a passion that we share.

So think you not this love will quickly pass
For we shall garden it with sweat and smiles
And make our hope to grow and bloom and last.
Our journey has before it many miles.

My lady, know that I love you more than life,
And this is why I've taken you as wife.
