37. In Sanctuary
Let our love be secret
so that it be kept from insight
from improper alien eyes
that would not understand its wonder,
this fantastic marvel of agreement
and this harmony of unison and mutual understanding,
so that our wee newborn babe,
so vulnerable in her freshness,
may stay uncontaminated
by the envious minds of smaller fry
who would not understand how much we love each other
although we do never meet.
So shall they never harm you
since they can't identify you,
thus our love will be safeguarded
for its growth and sacredness
in limitless perpetualness
and blessedness for all those happy few
that happen to be touched by our love.
