When Her True Love Calls, Answer Back With Glee

When Her True Love Calls, Answer Back With Glee When duty calls torn heart to disobey deep desires riding upon eager tides. Pay no heed to what this sad world may say seek that realm where her waiting heart resides. Look not at coming battles bringing pains with naysayers trampling thy highest hopes. For true love found, brings its own blessed gains not misery fallen from steep, dark slopes. When her true love calls, answer back with glee and thy union shall send its great rewards. For each morn, tis her thy soul wants to see, life together, thy soul shall work towards. What this dark world does its best to destroy love and light of truth ye must then employ. Robert J.
