Shall Love, As The Bridal Wreath, Whither And Die?

Title:     Shall Love, As The Bridal Wreath, Whither And Die?
Author: Alfred Castner King [More Titles by King]

Shall love as the bridal wreath, wither and die?
Or remain ever constant and sure,
As the years of the future pass rapidly by,
And the waves of adversity's tempest roll high,
Ever changeless and fervent endure?

Mistake not the fancy, that lasts but a day,
For the love which eternally thrives;
That sentiment false, is as prone to decay
As the wreath is to fade and to wither away;
And like it, it never revives.

[The end]
Alfred Castner King's poem: Shall Love, As The Bridal Wreath, Whither And Die?
