Now that we have met at last, Long desired! We who, waiting, never tired, All the past, We who waited for to-day, You and I, Seeing Fortune pass us by, on her way, Now our love has grown with years Three years old, We remember and behold Hopes and fears Like a dream that having been Fades and flies, As I look into your eyes, O my queen! And I hold your hand for sign, And you smile, As if always, all the while, You were mine; And we seem to know each other Far too well To have anything to tell One another. All was said and overpast Long ago; We who love each other so Meet at last. | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...PSALM 136 by OLD TESTAMENT BIBLE MY HEART'S IN THE HIGHLANDS by ROBERT BURNS WHISTLE, AND I'LL COME TO YOU by ROBERT BURNS JILTED by PAUL LAURENCE DUNBAR PLACES: 2.
