Yes, Yes, When The Bloom

Title:     Yes, Yes, When The Bloom
Author: Thomas Moore [More Titles by Moore]

Yes, yes, when, the bloom of Love's boyhood is o'er,
He'll turn into friendship that feels no decay;
And, tho' Time may take from him the wings he once wore,
The charms that remain will be bright as before,
And he'll lose but his young trick of flying away.
Then let it console thee, if Love should not stay,
That Friendship our last happy moments will crown:
Like the shadows of morning, Love lessens away,
While Friendship, like those at the closing of day,
Will linger and lengthen as life's sun goes down.

[The end]
Thomas Moore's poem: Yes, Yes, When The Bloom
