The World Seems Enchanted (REVISED)

 I am glad two lonely people are hooking up –
rekindling an old school-years love; hopefully
for you the world seems enchanted since you
found each other after a long circumstantial
separation, may she ever be your Juliette and
you her Romeo, with all the ardent fervor of
young love but without the lack of common
sense that led to the young lovers’ demise

May you take her hand and always keep her
close, talk through each argument without
giving in to a red-hot rage – please mark my
words, you are wise enough to realize that
love thrives in a thousand little favours and
a willingness to assist in everything, love
lives in a million little things, courtesy and
consideration, I trust that you will offer

More than you expect as it is what true
love is: Unconditional, not setting a price
on anything, not waiting for her to serve
before you offer your service – just being
there in friendship and loving care means
everything – I wish for you a love that
grows with the passing years, that you
will work to keep it so!
