When Parting.
Ring the change gently when new love moves in.
Old habits die harder as others begin.
Turn the page softly then no-one gets hurt.
Words spoken in anger can not be reversed.
Let love down lightly, although it may cost.
Make the break cleanly, then care is not lost.
Friends do not come cheap, relationships count.
Molehills are better than cliffs to surmount.
Swansongs are pleasant when played in right tune.
Old flames die easy when warmth lightens gloom.
Break-ups are better when handled with heart.
Showing the right moves to make, when parting.

Your finesse with couplets shows a master craftsman at work, even when the rhymes are half or mere assonance. The important thing is the sound effects help build the images and the rhythm is also shaping these finely sculpted lines.
