A Letter For The Shepherd

My dearest suitor,

    I know that it's been years that you are courting me. I do really appreciate your patience. You told me that you will prove me all the pleasures but are you sure that those things will lasts forever? Think of it. You even offer me things that you can do. That you will make a bed of roses, a cap of flowers and a kirtle embroidered all with leaves of myrtle. Yes. That's really romantic, but we all know that flowers do fade and soon it will wither. So, why would you give me those things that will just vanished when the time come.

   You even told me that you will give me a gown made out of the finest wool and a fair lined slippers with a buckle made of the purest gold. Aww. That's so sweet. But did you ever think that those things soon will just break, wither and will be forgotten? Is it the same with the love you show for me? Will your love for me will just fade like a flower? Or it will just break like a gown made out of wool? Will you still love me if my hair is all white? Will you still love me if my skin is crinkled? Now, tell me, would your love will lasts forever ?

                                                                                                                                           Sincerely yours,
                                                                                                                                            Nymph
