Sonnet: Let Human Love Be Pure

Let human love be truly from one’s heart! Let human love be not admixed by lust; Let human love be ‘one spousal’ from start; Let human love be pure like diamond- dust! Watch out for lust can play havoc in life, Becoming creepy all the more with time; And bring to families ruin and strife, Preventing one from making life sublime. Who wants a rotten apple for breakfast? Who wants fungated-food for supper/ lunch? Who wants a cup of poison drink for thirst? Who wants a bitter chewing gum to munch? Just as we expect others to be pure, We can’t afford to be in life impure. 7-14-2001
