Winsome Waif

O gentle lady, winsome waif,
with deep brown smiling eyes
and hair as ripened corn,
I beg you treat these paltry lines
as a gesture of my deep regard.

Well met, we two, a time or two ago
and the friendship that we do enjoy,
since first we met, gives
the greatest joy to one who seeks,
the pleasure of your company.
