A Lovers Tale


from the ABC set Poems

There is a lady in the Bay
she takes my breath away,
I fear she has another love
that lady of the bay,

so I sigh...I wonder why
she wants him not I,
where did she go? I don't know
when diving down below,

what mystery lied beneath the tide
that took this maiden fair?
I loved to watch her on the rocks
comb her waist long hair,

magic has me in her spell
as swimming through the Ocean swell,
could it be another love?
I ask the twinkling stars above,

If I should be the one she wants
I hope that she can see,
that we can swim along together
in love so tenderly.
