Freedom Though Misunderstood

Sonnet about love and life

Overly kind and little slow in study

Unskilled in sports_not beautiful was she

He came into her life when anybody

Would have made a match not just he

 

Becoming acquainted at church in their way

He flashed freedom before her eyes

In love she speedily fell that day

Before she thought of even could realize

 

She boldly and in secret whispering

Displayed the ring she now proudly wore

How great it was that she was a bride to be longing

For his soon return from his duty tour

 

Marriage offered change_some for good

Some for difficulty_freedom though misunderstood___
