Love
by Emma Mary Gascoyne

Oh heavens above
I think I'm in love
The bait has been bitten
AndI've become smitten

My heart gives a tug
At the thought of the bug
For I have been caught
The battle well fought

My heart I shall carry
For my love I'll not tarry
He is the one
My life has begun

For I shall discover
A friend and a lover
A person to mate
For that is my fate
