Thistle Down

By Ethel

Ring

Ring on my finger,
Betrothed from above.
Ever to cherish me,
And to give me his love.

For better or for worse,
The ending...the start.
That he take me always,
To be in his heart.

For I love him truly,
We will strive through the years.
To be drawn to each other,
And to overcome tears.

For thou art my living,
My rapture...my breath.
And sweet will be the hours,
From now until death.

Ring on my finger,
Life's joys are to be won.
It will bind us together,
And make us as one.

E.P. 1908 - 1989
