--- What Seeketh Ye Fair Stranger? ---

If you seek eternal love,
Then look to me or God above.

If it's strength of heart you seek,
Let me hold you when you're weak.

When you long for loving care,
You won't look long till I am there

I've looked high and wide for you
But now I don't know what to do.

I can give you all of me
But cannot give you eyes to see.





Some men see things as they are and ask "WHY ?" I see things as they could be and ask "WHY NOT ?"

then give your heart
that's where you start

next, give your soul
to make that life whole

and when those are recieved
you'll have a true love indeed

Excellent my friend. . . she'll see. . .

TLS,

This is a nice poem, but it so sad to read: -

'I can give you all of me
But cannot give you eyes to see.'

Best wishes
Jon

This is beautiful...may I add?

I shall give thee recompense
when all emotion has been spent

and I shall dry thy tears for thee
e'en tho thy eyes cannot see

and e'en tho I've given thee
my heart for all eternity...

poignant, sad but also very lovely words of love.

over the rain-green grass,
and the sun drips honey.""
