With God as mine witness, I stand before thee and
  pledge thee mine unwavering love.
Whither thou goest, I shall walk by thy side
  ~loving thee beyond all Earthly measure.
Mine hand I giveth unto thee with intentions of the
  highest order.
I will honour thee and falter not in mine undying
  support of thee.
Thy comeliness reaches far beyond thy outward shell.
Ye be a man of substance and great import, radiating
  the Divine within, wherever thou goest.
This world be a better place for having thee in it
  and I be honoured that ye return mine respect and
  adoration.
As ye giveth, so giveth I.
Blessed be we, my love.
As one, we shall be forevermore.
Namaste.
So mote it be.
Amen.

The very choice of Old English, makes me think you are One with him through time and time ... a bond so rich in content and duration!
Beautiful prayer poem, dear Linda.
Love and hugs. Margherita

I had visions of a knight and fair maiden on a cliff with the wind blowing, speaking the vows to each other...and all the while my heart did sigh.

Let my words fall first upon deaf ears before a closed mind...

(smiles) Awwwwwwww, this is such a beautiful prayer that made me shed a tear, dearest friend, ever since I was Baby Mistletoe, my parents have taught me the beauty of His love and I believe it is important for all the children of the world to learn and appreciate our Lord as if you believe in something, you will find solace and true happiness! (kiss on cheek) Yay, God Bless You, we all love you so much! You have such a beautiful heart, sweet Linda, thank you for sharing!



May love and light always shine upon you!

Love,
Noah Eaton

Wearing the name I do, I'd always wished for someone I could quote those verses in Ruth to... from the heart. *S* The irony is... I wrote something just last week that I tentatively titled "Whither Thou Goest"... now I read your excellent work! *S*

This is one of your best, my friend... you said it so well it's going into my library. *S*

Very awe inspiring...It was very deeply heart felt and I loved every word.

Dear Belle of the South ~

I have been missing you, Dear One!

I also posted a poem entitled "Whither Thou Goest" last April! It appears that great minds do think alike! lol

I am honored that you deem my poem a keeper! It will be going to a good home!

I look forward to reading your poem! Please post it!

~ May you hear such words of devotion, Sweet Ruth!

Loves and hugs,
Linda

Dear Beans of Jelly ~

It's good to hear from you! You have been conspicuous by your absence!

Yes, sincerity is often a rare commodity!

Have a great Spring!
