Love is like the blossom <br />Bursting into full bloom <br />Staying pure and perfect <br />Then time knocks at the door <br />Aging and withering <br />Until the light of the blossom fades <br />So perfect from conception <br />Withered at the death <br />Love knocked and has been <br />Stayed a while <br />Disappointedly departed<br /><br />Gordon D Wilkinson<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/aging-love/
