Acts of Love
by Pam Rehm
If endear is earned
and is meant to identify
two halves
then it composes
one meaning
which means
a token
a knot
a note
a noting in the head
of how it feels
to have your heart
be the dear one

why this poetry:
I read this poetry in when I was young. I choose this poetry because is nostalgic.
analysis:
1st stanza: if you being loved, or love someone, it is time to find partner.
2nd~4th stanza:it means token, knot, and note. I think in this part author made rhyme and made word out of token. Word knot and note rhyme, sounds same. Also, their also can made up with token. In verbal meaning, token is mark, which in poet, it means mark of love, and knot means bond between couples. Note means mark as token.
5th stanza: first word rhymes with note, and it means don't think about it,
6th stanza: just feel the heart and follow it.
JK♪: hmm....hard...deep meaning inside? I think it's just saying of love that covered with hard words.
