[read Elizabeth's first]



Amen, my Beloved, to thy dreams!!

For  ALL  I had dreamed, thy words summed!

After it all, there is this Mystery, God-timed,

of our similarities in ALL of Life's schemes:



awsome Hope's lifting of twain hearts above;

Beauty's fullest, fairest blessing of innocent Love!



Whether we deserve such blessed Love, who decides?

Cannot others leave alone such Love as here grows?

My Dear Heart, I bring ALL Love my entire life knows!

And, above all, Eternal Love its subjects never chides.



Doth God impart, now,  double-blessing due double-badness?

I care not!  Nor whither goeth your, my, dispelled sadness!





          Wisened minds would give their answers to all;

          be-loving hearts softly succumb to each's call.
