Uncertain Fair,
How this Heart Longs for Thy Tender Touch!
Bejeweled Night in All her Splendour
Lays as fallow, barren dust
In comparison to Thy Most Gentle Caress!
UnSpoken Temptation,
How this Heart heaves in Sighs for Thy Lingering Gaze!
The Depths of Calypso’s Resplendent Abyss
Are but transitory shoal,
Beside the Majesty of Thy most Fleeting Glance!
Speak often,
Oh Most Protracted Sigh,
And tell of this poor Heart’s Sweet Longing,
Beguiled and Unbending
To the Ravages of Inopportune Time,
Hold Fast, Sweet Longing!
Hold Fast and Keep Thy Measure
Knowing This Hour of forlorn division
Is but one Ephemeral Moment,
Compared to the Eternity of Thy Love
Shared with Mine in
Sweetest Longing!
