1. I was delighted to see you recovering
From an illness which had begun to abate and disappear

2. The healthy have long sought shelter and refuge with you
As have those recovering from sickness sought remedy

3. It is no surprise then that you succumb to some malady
For I have seen roses adorned with blight

4. Were you a star you would not be eclipsed
Rather your eclipse is that you were a radiant full moon
