An arduous start for a life teeming in glory
The odds and chance thrived with fortitude
Each yoke of unwinding tenderness
The ardent love of a man to his wife.
Headed wise in heaven's approval
Creep in the good graces and love's fulfilling honor
Sometimes the wails of adversity by parcels come
That mortals haste to toil firmly for a forsaken heart
If at once the bended soul comes for comfort's refuge
That, but not an instance the dutiful fondness lost
Such is an invitation for the innocent to emulate
An articulate match to both love and respect.
At no time must old age sway the light-hearted, bright affection
For to even think of it flaws the freedom of being blissful
This well-timed moment be your beacon of reminiscence
To enjoy the April showers and linger in the medley of God's bounties.
