The Almost Marriage at France
by Vhea Jirehn Libat
Rizal took a vacation, in Madrid’s troubles he runs
He first saw Nellie Boustead in France, February 1891
At Villa Eliada, he was a guest and it all begun
Rizal wants a battle with Antonio Luna for her love, but as a former lover, Luna said “no”; he was done.
When Leonor Rivera was married to another man, Rizal froze
And in Nellie, he focused and chose to propose
But the mother's not in favor, the girl’s demand was exposed
Told Rizal to convert to Protestantism, He opposed
That ends their relationship, the marriage was postponed
A love at France was unfolded, and another page of Rizal's love was closed.
