Susan…in love again?

Headlong,

Faith strong,

Soul soaring above again?

 

Susan…for keeps again?

Swift lunge,

Strait plunge,

Into emotional deeps again?

 

Susan…complete again?

Eyes bright

With content-light,

Swept off your feet again?

 

Ah!… but then?

 

Susan…distraught again?

How can you end it,

Don`t want to mend it,

He`s not what you thought…again?

 

Susan…full of sighs again?

Fly away, and then

Draw back again,

Pity-light softening your eyes again.

 

Susan…didn`t want to hurt again?

But it had to be,

Reluctantly,

Tears a torrent-spurt again.

 

 

Ah! What`s to become of you girl

When the whirl

And whiz of it all wanes

With the wending of the years?

Tears?

Oh, no. Heaven would be ashamed

To let much sadness settle around your years.

Who`s sins (if sins they prove)

Were ever on the tender side of love.

 

So, girl, follow your bent.

Be with bliss blent.

Never be smart,

Or be discrete.

Go! With your heart,

You`ll fall on your feet,

Sweet,

Sweet,

Sweet

Susan.
