LOVE IS NOT…….

 LOVE IS NOT…….

Love is not, on the flowing water, an evanescent bubble

Love is not, under a collapsed dome, dusty, powered rubble,

Love is not a whimsical shower of an ugly promiscuous lust

Love is not an explosive cracker to be ever irrationally burnt!

Love is not, the charred coal of devious, villainous  distrust

Love is not, a haven of the hallucinative and ever melting frost

Love is not,  an iron bar under the sway of gnawing, rotting rust

Love is not,  a wind blown wretched balloon buffetted by gust!

Love is not, a hapless puppet in the hands of heinous, tactful fools

Love cannot be vanquished and evanished by  odious, infernal rules

Love is not a spurious staircase of delusion that leads lovers to a hell

Love is not an unsteady candle that is most likely to put out and fail!

Love is not a jail where condemnable and contemptible culprits dwell

Love is not a Utopian Empire where nothing but reveries always prevail!
