“The Alchemy of Affection by Stewart Stafford The language of Aphrodite, Rendering words as liquid gold. To flood the heart's chambers, Setting them in gilded aurum bold. When this opulent heart beats, Minted blood in golden boughs flows, In possession of treasure most precious, Whose true worth none of us knows.

The Alchemy of Affection by Stewart Stafford
The language of Aphrodite,
Rendering words as liquid gold.
To flood the heart's chambers,
Setting them in gilded aurum bold.
When this opulent heart beats,
Minted blood in golden boughs flows,
In possession of treasure most precious,
Whose true worth none of us knows.
Magnates and moguls may scheme to buy,
The devotion that is never truly theirs,
Count your kisses instead of fortunes,
To bequeath to your loving, rightful heirs.
