Autumn Romance

Hand in hand they wandered north-eastward across the vales during the beautiful autumn time in England's Yorkshire Dales. The sun shone over the valleys nature was never so fair, on the day he wooed the one he loved, the girl with the flaxen hair. The depth of his soul was captured by a softness, pure as the snow. His young life he would surrender because he adored her so. Voices echoed from a village church and as he knelt before his love... he could hear Mendelssohn's melody: 'O For the Wings of a Dove'. Who else within the whole wide world could feel such ecstasy rare? At a time when fairy-tales came true, they both vowed their lives to share.
