My Love Poem by John William Inchbold

My love is fair as is the first blush rose,
My love is still as is the ocean deep,
Within her heart all worthy knowledge glows,
And sin with her is as unconscious sleep;
My love has eyes, how piercing calm and clear!
At home in heaven, love's beauteous face they see,
And then give joy to me without a fear
When sad and weary from the world I flee;
My love is great as mighty queens have been,
And is a queen by force of strongest love,
Her kingdom heaven's own blue and earth's sweet green,
Great seas, and force that all true men shall move;
If thou dost meet my love I pray thee know
Our God hath made one only loved one so.
