Tarot Card VI. THE LOVERS

Having loved me when I was young
and now when I am not,
you are twice blessed
for giving
a rich person a gift.

In no one else's dream but yours,
I will be the old lady
wearing a white straw hat
with a red satin bow
who says   Thank you.

  And I could die for that. I could die for you.'
  ~ John Keats
• 'Love is an attempt to change a piece of a dream world into reality.'
