Sense Sonnet - Acher

 Marcel and Edith

They were the toast of Paris town,

Marcel Cerdan, a boxer great,

Edith Piaf sang to renown.

Lovers destined for an ill fate

When Marcel in a plane crash died,

As Edith waited for him to

Rejoin her and be at her side.

"Hymn to Love" Edith sang as true

Tribute to and faith in Marcel,

With angels he awaited her.

For eternity both would dwell

Reunited in love for sure.

Now in heaven Edith does sing,

As Marcel's sparring in the ring.
