Two Lovers.

A Wedding took place in a church long ago,

the groom was resplendent, the bride was aglow.

They had known each other since ringlets and curls,

she was the pick of the bunch ; amongst all other girls.

He tried many ways to impress her; no doubt,

when he succeeded, inside he would shout.

There's pleasure and pain in courtship and love,

but if the god Eros smiles down from above,

both hearts will entwine and love will ensue,

with trust, dedication; both must be true .

Time just moves on, and lovers do too,

in the mid nineteen fifties, it was me ; it was you.

I tried to impress you in so many ways,

I loved you, I left you -  and counted the days

we took to resolve the situation : no doubt.

Perhaps that's what true love is really about.

There's pleasure and pain in courtship and love,

but when the god Eros smiles down from above,

both hearts will entwine and love will ensue,

with trust, dedication; both must be true .

The years are unfolding toward the next century

unknown the adventures that still are to be.

As lovers have continued through all of the ages

we too ; will have our story, in history's pages.

I love you still, of that there's : no doubt,

that's what true love is really about.

.

There's pleasure and pain in courtship and love

but because the god Eros smiled down from above,

both hearts have entwined and love did ensue.

With trust : dedication

both have been true .
