My Angel, Lover-Dover, Lady True,
Why is it I’m so happy when I think of you?
I sit and imagine typing “I love you so,”
And I feel a warming in me, an inner glow,
That tells me you are everything I ever want to know.
Long time this friendly fire in me has burned on sure,
Sure of fuel that is my love, and it will grow but more
The more it’s used in burning for the you I adore.
You’re only you, I’m only I, but this “only” is so great and high
That “everything” must stand back in amaze
To see the blazing beauty of our true-loving ways.
My Angel, Lover-Dover, Lady true,
Why is it I’m so happy when I think of you?
