HAD I BEEN GIVEN
by J. Randal Matheny

Had I been given years without end,
To search the globe from east to west;
Were Solomon's treasures mine to spend
To find among women the purest and best;
None, though like Sheba's queen, dressed
In finery and fashion, could compare
To my beloved -- none so fair!

Why this poem, now? Here's my short explanation:
