The Wind In the Oak

It is the wind which bends the Oak 
as it bends to the wind -it spoke 
"I feel your power, you mighty wind." 
So is the same with love and men. 
No strength abounds that love can't bend. 

Beware you then the coil will blow 
and let the wind through branches flow. 
Let your heart bend as at the bough 
never question when or how. 
For love is love and meant too know. 

For the tree which cannot bend 
will be uprooted by the wind 
there it will lay and wither away 
to rot and fester and decay. 
If giving to love, the heart must sway.
