when first he saw her hair so golden.
But alas, he was sure she was saying "no way!"
He thought that, to another, she was beholden.
On a glorious Sabbath Day in November, (7th, 1976)
he found himself next to this lady in white.
Her roommates arranged a dinner to remember,
knowing their hearts would take to flight.
He hinted of a dance
for a Hawkins named Sadie,
She took a chance
for she was a brave lady.
Selecting music for the next Ward dance,
he decided he, too, would take a chance.
He asked her to come check out a 'rock band' --
when his car 'broke down', 'twas placed on her hand!
There 'neath the lights of a temple so rare,
they basked in the glow of that sacred sight.
A passerby asked "Did they need any care?"
They smiled and said "everything's ALL-right".
Across an altar in Salt Lake City,
their vows were sealed by a prophet of God.
And as they pondered eternity,
they embraced each other... and the iron rod.
