Love to Requite

Love is sweetest and fairer still

When 'tis budding fresh and new.

Unexpectedly it fills our hearts

Like the arrival of morning's dew.

With wonder anew and intoxication

Within the rapture of its allure

We are wrapped in love's fulfillment

Sure forevermore our joy will endure.

Thus, each step we make is light-hearted,

Each thought filled with the utmost delight,

As with anticipation we rise and tread

Fully eager, our love to requite.
