NaPoWriMo April 16th - Three Pantun (Sonnet #46)

Sonnet #46 (actually, three pantun and a closing couplet)

In the hustle and the bustle
as we plod our chosen way;
in the winning and the losing
keeping score throughout the day -

in the seeking and the striving
as our plans oft go astray;
in the comings and the goings
and the things we do, and say -

in the kicking and the screaming
of war's battles, of the fray;
in the plotting and the scheming
of our deep naivete -

Our pure love knows no decay:
In my arms I pray you’ll stay.
