Child of May


from the ABC set Black Ribbons and Lace

Child of May:
Your eyes are jekyll and hyde
Sometimes humility, sometimes pride
Pure, polluting; I cannot look away.

Rub-a-dub-dubberly
I think you'd look lover-ly
Dressed in your fine Sunday best
We'd have some fine times
Composing new rhymes
Guessing guesser from guest ;O)

Thanks so much for the lovely comments Dynamaso, Magic and Sarah. I really appreciate it.

Mangone: Lol. Thanks for the pretty little ditty, made me smile :)

I seemed to have missed this one, somewhere along the way, but I'm real glad I've come across it now. A little gem;-)

Che bello, Signorina Domenica. Dice tutto con poche righe. Brava.

Buona sera, luigi. Come stai?
Sei molto gentile. Grazie.

A dopo :)

(I hope this makes sense, I am more confident with speaking Italian than writing it!)

Ciao.

I think the use of May as it is springtime and youthful was very clever
