Love me again, I'll give my everything Give me your heart, and I’ll take the love you bring We’ll set the world where we don’t see the past We’ll sail the sea with our love’s stronger mast-- We’ll feel the breeze like the songs of love we sing.
So love me, dear, and let our heartstrings cling Through all our Winters, Summers, and Springs So take my hand, you’re mine again at last! Love me again...
We’ll be as two doves flying wing to wing To our celestial throne as queen and king Where soft angelic clouds may off-broadcast A love that's deeper than the stars, so vast As vibrant harp strings mimic each heartstring Love me again...
A Rondeau is a French form, 15 lines long, consisting of three stanzas: a quintet, a quatrain, and a sestet with a rhyme scheme as follows: aabba aabR aabbaR. Lines 9 and 15 are short - a refrain (R) consisting of a phrase taken from line one. The other lines are longer (but all of the same metrical length).

Intriguing love poem! “Past” and “last” don’t rhyme with “dust“, “must“, and “lust“. The word “song” should be “songs” in line five. Line four is hard to understand.

I have to change only past and last. Line 4 means "we'll sail (the sea of life) with the love that never ends (last)...but anyway I have to change lines 3 and 4.
Thanks.

Isn't love inspired and not given? Love is a mood that you feel deep inside of yourself. It may or may not have been inspired by another. If it is inspired by another, then someone else helps you to feel the mood of love, but that isn't the same as loving someone. The object of one’s love is the one who inspires it, and so you enjoy having that person near you. Nothing is given or taken. I'll tell someone that they make me feel the mood of love when I'm near them, but I'm not giving them anything at all by doing this. I'm only helping myself to a good experience.

You still haven’t followed 0/1/0/1/0/1/0/1/0/1 ten syllable meter in your last two verses. You may have these two gift poems as examples to do with as you please: The first fit’s the first two lines of your second verse and the second is a rewrite of your last verse: Heartstring may be pronounced either way with a hard accent on either “heart” or “string“.
So love me dear and let our heartstrings sing
through all our Winters, Summers on through Spring.
We’ll be as two doves flying wing to wing
to our celestial throne as queen and king
where soft angelic clouds may oft-broadcast
a love that’s deeper than the stars are vast
as vibrant harp strings mimic each heartstring.
Love me again.
