Don't love a marvellously mischievous mountain from a distance,
Don't love a deliciously deceptive mirage from a distance,
Don't love the saltiest and undrinkable water of the sea from a distance,
Don't love the Moon, until you cast into Her unnoticeably ugly core, a close glance!
Let not your Love ever be the devouring tongue of a gobbling frog,
For an innocent, insecure, carefree, vincible and vulnerable insect;
For, Love loves to care, pamper, protect, and sing forever a healing song,
And never tends to pretend, and pierce like a mosquito sting to inject and infect!
Let not the salt of your love weaken the strength of the blissful bones of your loved one,
Let not the acidic water of your love rust and reduce the peaceful pillars of your beloved's life span,
Let not the brutal intensity of your love char, as molten does, the happiness of your sweetheart's life,
Let not your fierce and violent love stab your better parts like Brutus' bloody and nefarious Knife!
