The Flirt
Her tresses black as jet, eyes startling blue
Her dress a silken gown of blushing pearl
But never in doubt was my love for you
So comely was she, such a charming girl
Her dress a silken gown of blushing pearl
Enticingly she simpered, young men sighed
So comely was she, such a charming girl
Her beauty rare could never be denied
Enticingly she simpered, young men sighed
Did not perceive her father’s cross concern
Her beauty rare could never be denied
At sixteen years she had a lot to learn
Her tresses black as jet, eyes startling blue
But never in doubt was my love for you
A Pantoum. ( I think/hope)
