Analysis of On the Doorstep of Love
The effect of a woman on man
When a mountain of desire
For this woman so fine
Sets his heart afire
He’ll try to restrain
His flourishing attraction
But she’s on his mind
A constant distraction
A compassionate soul
Who gives from her heart
She’s a gift of love
God’s own art
And this man before her
At the threshold there of
His heart in hand
On the doorstep of love
