Anthology Verse on Love and Armor
A speaker imagines building a sylvan bower as a dwelling for love and a yearned retreat where brook music and elfin light shape carefree hours. Yet a second desire emerges for a steel armor and dragon guardians to shield the union, warning Hymen’s chain may fracture Cupid’s link and win the beloved back.
