sonnet- of art and heart

when a matter of art became matter of heart  
the end became the means of justification  
though all could see the art but a few saw the start  
emotions leaving not differentiation  
 
of art he was the king of hearts she was the queen  
usual was the odd clique of their detractors  
through their own artful ways they so did vent their spleen  
the two subjects of love cared of no such factors  
 
on the mural of life the detraction was blush  
the glow of love and art blighted the dark chapel  
give the detractors an inch neither was in rush  
the reality of truth was hard to grapple  
 
forgive and forget the king and the queen did not  
something the libellers expected quite a lot
