Quatrain of Domesticated Heart
Domestic - reorganization of wild animals and
plants into domestic and cultivated forms
1.
Those feelings that swept over me
when I first saw you, so wild and
pretentious
Scooped from the depths of a thousand
years of biological growth,
tendentious.
At first you were spooked and thought
I would never relax my amorous
squeal,
But I surprised you, and in less than a
lifetime I settled down to become
genteel.
2.
Now my heart is domesticated and I
have no desire to run out on the
prowl,
Like a puppy I shall remain ready to
be handled and promise never to
growl.
I shall remain your rock, your solid
connection to all that is true and
worthwhile,
Your love is worth any sacrifice I might
encounter and any happiness I might
compile.
