Those blue eyes are pools
Translucent and deep
Hiding a young heart
What promises keep?

Windows they may be
Down into her soul
And ev’ry entrance
Seems to take its toll

The world, it wonders
My heart, now it shakes
Ready to dive in
Those rivers and lakes

Go on, take the plunge
Taste the fruit divine
Tho’ I don’t believe
She could e’er be mine



To Jennifer H.

I set this to piano music at one point and now (2014) can still kind of hear the music in my head, but the actual tune has been lost to the ravages of time and poor record-keeping.
