Analysis of To Rebecca
To my Rebecca,
A princess fair to see.
All my words could not express,
How much you mean to me.
So please be true to my heart,
In my arms, fear not for I am near.
My God gave me courage,
To protect you from all you fear.
So as I finish this poem,
My Rebecca, if only you knew.
Be soft to my emotions Rebecca,
I will always love you.
