Be as

26 15 5
                                    

Grasp me tangle  me shatter me through

Cunning and unscathed I will shine brighter than you

For The depths of my soul are as those of the sea

how far you travel there is great   uncertainty

Clamber thy fists upon a broken heart

Scattering no more there is nothing to part

Thrust Iron words as though to a child

For likewise my being shall be meek and mild

I am as a lamb who hath strayed from its Shepard

So innocent not tainted as the brilliant Leopard

Spring ones thoughts upon my untroubled mind

Not gradual  nor ruthless but of a subtle kind

As a Caterpillar draws itself upon a tender leaf

Be as the garden snake who watches from beneath

Contain thy words to thine  own soul

Spouting forth nonsense as useless as burnt Cole

For as the Fox sneaks up on its pray

Hold back thy words until the next day

Be as the deer who is timid but guided

Or as a butterfly who flitters around so delighted

Not as a lion who rages at a mouse

Be as the gentle retriever that guards the house

For as feelings our words should be monitored and true

As pure and simple as I love you
