Of Belle and Beaux
Listen to poem:
Please say if you have savvy
In the arts of matrimony
Wouldn't you take that step again
And avow your testimony
Of Belle and Beaux the story is
Of passion they are driven
To pen upon the book of love
Their names both new and given
Won’t it be grand to say and stand
To lead the maiden fair
With silk and lace upon her face
And flowers in her hair
To one who would to have and hold
Revoke at any claim
Speak it now or forever fold
This Belle shall bear my name
The kin shall join high on a bluff
Beneath a harvest sky
Give thanks and pray that joyous day
And never wonder why
