                                                                            All I ask of Love
For my treasured brother and his wife to be.

 

To ask too much from Love, I dare not

Nor hinder its’ destined way

Remembering always its’ ebb and flow

It is to Love that I give myself today

 

I shall not want the world from it

But serve as best I know

Never to crave or neglect what is mine.

Just nourish, listen, grow.

 

Love’s fatherly hand we take this day

To lead us on a way

The destination as yet unknown

Our future- a face to us not shown.

 

And when this earthly dusk draws in

And our story here be told

The promise I made to Love today

To other worlds shall surely go

 

To care – we must

To dream – we dare

To laugh, to seek and be bold

Yet, it is to Love that I give myself

To keep, to have and to hold.
