New Love

NEW   LOVE


Love is  shining  new, and is always  first :   

A mother  loves  each baby’s golden   life;

And each  teenage  crush  is glass at its worst. 

Each time the silver light falls on my wife  

Her smile is pearl  and  my heart  nears to burst.               

Adorned thus,  in  feelings constant and  rife,       

Like  Prince Paris  for his  Helen of  Troy

I’m dressed brightly in  finest  silk-spun joy.
