A Lady and Her Two Knights
For their Nona and Papaw
Three young adults walking along to Mass
Pals from childhood, arms around each other,
Laughing, and pausing briefly for a mama-picture -
For them, even October is their spring
And in this springtime of their lives they offer
All of their happiness to Our Lord Himself,
All together Ad Altare Dei,
To God who giveth joy to their youth1
Three friends laughing, taking the morning air:
Two knights honored to escort their lady fair
1paraphrased from the Missale Romanum of 1962
