pleasures

[cacian]

love is a place
a book to trace
a rose that makes
ribbons and cake
and turn a pleasure
to a quaint

to cry a date
is multiways
see it as faith
bitter is laid
and sweet is taste
to tears that fade

lovers parade
the trouble say
is timeless clay
to shape to glaze
to throw and brace
performance pays

love is a place
that cares to race
a game of ace
only to place
a bet to state
that is two is gate

a voyage main
is that it takes
a tango pace
to brighten age
a heart to heart
a face to face
and love is raised
