My Lady

Oh that I would forget at last

That one brief summer in the past

Of skies so blue, of air so clear

And nights so cool with stars so near

When I met my lady.

The Sparkling eyes and husky laugh

Lured me often to the hearth

To sit at her feet in wondrous mind

And gaze transfixed at my life’s find

Listening to my lady.

Long dark hair her eyes of green

By my side she was a queen

A smile so rare, her graceful air

All heads turned when she was there

Yes, she was my lady.

For two hundred days and two hundred nights

We savoured all of loves delights

Till that day she looked so pale

And the doctors came to no avail

And she died my lady.

I’ve wondered since from land to land

Just barely living nothing planned

Perhaps I should not count the cost

For tis better to have loved and lost

Then never have loved my lady.

Long dark hair and eyes of green

By my side she was a queen

A smile so rare, her graceful air

All heads turned when she was there

For a second in time she was my lady.
