Lesson Of Love

Flying over blue mountains and
silver grey clouds,
The Prince kissed neck of the unicorn...

 

"Oh Purest one tell me this...
When does one become complete?"

 

"Man - when he is able to lead,
Woman when she is able to feed,
Together when they plant a seed"
said Unicorn.

 

Landing on lush green plateau
The Prince asked again-
"How can I test someone's love?"

 

"Reject it and see Oh Prince !
Love would accept the Pain,
Pride would complain !"

 

Dismounting at the gate of his palace,
The Prince asked "Tell me one more.
How to keep love forever young?"

 

"Let patience precede passion,
Let distance precede union.
Let seasons change, but the earth be the same,
Listen to the silence, relish the pain"

 

And then the unicorn flew back to the skies.
