From the book
She'll Be There
She'll Be There
Doubt thou the stars are fire'
Doubt that the sun doth move;
Doubt truth to be a liar'
But never doubt I love.
William Shakespeare
Mother's Memory
Mother's Memory
If I had thought thou couldst have died
I might not weep for thee;
But I forgot, when by thy side,
That thou couldst mortal be;
It never through my mind had past
The time would e'er be o'er,
and I on thee should look my last,
And thou shouldst smile no more!
Charles Wolfe
A Big Step
A Big Step
Come live with me, and be my love,
And we will some new pleasures prove
Of golden sands, and crystal brooks,
With Silken lines, and silver hooks.
John Donne
