Happy Ending
I carried the rose through the broken path
I asked why.
I placed it on a stone, and begged foe mercy.
The pain of a heart at ache bared in my chest
An unsettling ease swept over me,
As I knew I was at rest.
The dream showed my concealed anguish
And the dear face of my love.
Awoken by a rock tapping the window
I went to look out, there he stood.
The window complained as I eased it open,
“Why are thou there? What is it thou want?”
A frown broke his face and he replied,
“Unsettled things make me uneasy
I feel guilty and know its my fault.
I was fraud to think thou a fool
As that name is mine own.”
The words engendered a tear to fall on my cheek.
“ Fool am I to think thou not of value to me
And fool it is that I may be
But alas I am not untrue, so as I say so
Take these words I utter from thine heart to you.
Meet me tomorrow among the fountain
And I shall prove myself worthy and true
But as I bid you farewell
there is one favor of which I ask.
May you climb down the eve
Bid me a proper good bye
Look deep into my soul with thine eye
And bid my a goodnight kiss.”
