Will you, my dearest?
Will you be there O my dearest,
Will you be there when I need you most?
Will you be there when I am old,
Waiting, guest-like, for the host?
Will you be there when I am weak,
Unsteady and unstable on my feet,
Will you be there to offer your arm,
Will you be there when I am offbeat?
You coax and cajole me night and day,
Tender and loving in your own way,
Will all this continue when I am grey,
Will you be mine all the way?
Life is uncertain O dearest,
Too unpredictable is its sway,
So it matters when I ask you,
Will your fondness forever stay?
Thought-provoking and touching!!!
