   Nighttime thoughts–waves crash–
   The naked moon appears, a question.

   Suddenly frozen
   My mind glistens on branches
   A wren shakes off flakes.

   Happily preening – aware of nothing.

   A somewhat wet frost
   on our feet–too early to
   walk about like this.

   I don’t know how subtle I can be, here. You taciturn bards compel me to offer Arguements. Yes, my second stanza contains the “Love” reference.

    So according to the rules, the next couplet needs to address Love also. A coupling couplet, as it were.

    MF asked me why “Love” can’t be spiritual, why necessarily a “coupling couplet.” I am using “Love” in the Lylesian sense, of course:

    and, therefore, forever linked with, if not equated with, the “sensual.”

    Lyles will no doubt retort that it just makes it a concupiscent couplet.

    Poor “Love” is getting left in the lurch. Quick, someone write a couplet and reclaim it.
