Notes About The Poem

This is not me!!! Just a picture from the internet..

The Happiest Day

The Happiest Day, The Happiest Hour  
When A Dream Within A Dream came true  
And seeing the Evening Star between the bower  
As the man with The Raven hair sat next to me on the pew

All the Stanzas of the  Hymn were done
Romance in my fluttering heart An Enigma
The Bells ringing in my ears as one-by-one
The Sleeper emotion of devotion aroused by charisma

Nor Dream-Land as though it really seemed
But Dreams of Romance finally chanced
Nor The Valley Of Unrest but light from his eyes beamed
The light from his eyes,The Raven hair, the dream enhanced

The Happiest Day, The Happiest Hour
When a real live suitor,  A Valentine
Came to take me away by his willpower
Those wedding vows said to him I'm thine

Love is all around, at the altar and in the pew. When it rings it's bell there's only one thing to do. Sing the song to the heaven's and live a life for two.
