WISE MEN SAY

Let us be grateful to people who make us happy;
they are the charming gardeners who make our souls blossom. (Marcel Proust)

POETRY FOR PLEASURE

TRUE LOVE
Anon

True love is a sacred flame
That burns eternally,
And none can dim its special glow
Or change its destiny.

True love speaks in tender tones
And hears with gentle ear,
True love gives with open heart
And true love conquers fear.

True love makes no harsh demands
It neither rules nor binds,
And true love holds with gentle hands
The hearts that it entwines.
