TREASURE / TRESOR

Kiddo, you DO cut, really CUT deep!

We all know just how you feel.

The only thing more common

than promised-love is lost-love.

"The tree that falls unwitnessed;

is it silent?"(& muteness is MY refuge).







"The Story Without Words" in a heart;

is such a sweet song, sometimes sung silently:

"My true love won't be starved to death!",

Kiddo, Love is ageless, free from corruption.

Without avowing, it declares its oath:

   "A burning glacier,

               my heart's ineffable,

                           inexorable devotion."

Author's Notes/Comments: 

K., sometimes the "challenge" of many words is better than merely the "10".
(Response to "My Treasure", by K. A. Tinsley. Six lines + six lines, and extended slightly (just like me).
