A toast to love’s forever-lasting days

A toast to love’s forever-lasting days

If once it will be found then may it stay

Undying vows held to unswerving ways

Eternal celebration come what may

For all who clasp it long love shines upon

No someday darken-tossed nor fortune-dimmed

Sweet warbled is one’s prospect-tendered song

Great comfort in eternal hours untrimmed

But if coerced by time those fires may fade

Then nothing gained of Cupid could we keep

From love’s embroiling stumble into shade

Those once infinite passions buried deep

So here’s to love while it may glitter gold

As tightly as we grasp it may it hold
