Together we sat to watch the late-hour stars
    as music lingered in the cool night air
    into your dreamy eyes I looked
    a blissful moment beyond every care

  do you remember how we met?
  spring's flowers were dancing everywhere
  you smiled when you walked by
  your beauty with none could I compare

  Such a glorious day this is!  you spoke
  as I was reading Keats' on the bench just there
  my heart leapt for joy and I said
  please sit by me -- as into your eyes I did stare

  oh, Keats' poems I do love dearly
  but how painfully his love did fare
  you then placed your tender hand on mine
  our hearts to each other we freely did bare

   ah, my beloved, how the years have fled
   yet this do allow me to declare:
   that spring day how could forget?
   as every token of love I still faithfully wear.
