Love Poem: And So Comes This Love

And So Comes This Love

I was counting days 'till he would be mine,
      I was ticking off nine.
        One morning I felt not a thing,
so my husband gave the doctor a ring.
            And so comes this love . . .
        My baby had flown up above,
he had left in the night for the divine;
        and in my heart he will ever twine,
to my sweet boy I just wanted to cling;
      and a lullaby sing.
            And so comes this love . . . 
       Then, I had to let go of my dove-
Often, I walk among the yellow pine,
    to where he rests in the sun . . . shine.
