Poetry: A lasting love

by Patty E Padgett

Created on: July 23, 2009

THE LORD OF THE MANOR AND HIS LADY

They walked together arm-in-arm

Her in her beauty

Him with his charm

A handsome twosome was this pair

The Lord of the manor and his Lady Fair

Into the garden, they both strolled

Recalling memories of that day of old

When she wore a dress of satin and lace

A radiant smile upon her face

Perfumed by the roses that she carried

In this very garden, they were married

The beautiful young Maiden so fair

And her Beau, so handsome and debonair

The years passed and the children came

The lady's beauty remained the same

No signs of aging upon her face

An ageless Princess full of grace

Until the day they were laid to rest

Their love continued to stand the test

For each other only they did care

The Lord of the manor and his Lady fair
