Hands, Brown, slender, strong Are not the ones that caress me Hair, Dark, curly, boyish Is not the kind I smooth Eyes, Deep, earnest, yearning Are not the ones I wake to One half the sentiment is there But the dreams-- Vivid, honest, longing-- Are not what greet me with the day What on earth do I do with that?

Incongruent
Hands, Brown, slender, strong Are not the ones that caress me Hair, Dark, curly, boyish Is not the kind I smooth Eyes, Deep, earnest, yearning Are not the ones I wake to One half the sentiment is there But the dreams-- Vivid, honest, longing-- Are not what greet me with the day What on earth do I do with that?
