Believe me

I have writer's block today so I will sing to you....

Believe me, if all those endearing young charms
Which I gaze on so fondly today
Were to change by tomorrow and fleet in my arms
Like fairy gifts fading away.

Thou wouldst still be adored, as this moment thou art
Let thy loveliness fade as it will
And around the dear ruin each wish of my heart
Would entwine itself verdantly still

For it's not while beauty and youth are thine own,
And thy cheeks unprofaned by a tear
That the fervour and faith of a soul can be known
That in time would but make thee more dear.

For the heart that has truly loved never forgets
And as truly loves on till the close.
As the sunflower turns to her God when he sets
The same face that she turned when He rose.

You say you had a block. Then you said I will sing for you, who is you? Did you mean everyone who reads this blog ? If so you need to write I will sing for you all.


Guess who!
