Barbara Barry-Nishanian Poet Rondeau

I Love You, Truly

I LOVE YOU TRULY

I love you, truly, my dear one,
From dawn till daylight’s setting sun.
Until I go to bed to sleep,
Praying each night … “our love grows deep.”
        My darling, need I tell you why?
        
There may have been another heart,
never was she, my counterpart
Only with you, life want to share,
        I love you, truly …

I’ll promise always, to be true,
promise pray never misconstrue.
My heart belongs to you alone,
Till my name read, on my headstone.
till I die, till last adieu
        I love you, truly …

FJ Thomas January 31, 2023 at 8:39 PM Barbara this is a beautiful Rondeau. The thought of a long lasting true love relationship is something most dream of. It occurred to me you may not see my reply to your question about Soup mail so I will also answer here. Next to each person's profile picture you should see a little envelope, if they have it enabled, tapping on that should open a Soup mail to them. Also, from a computer, in the list of links on the left of the PS home page you should see "Soupmail," I have sent you a message.
