Someone asked me for the best boy
The clearest-eyed, the quickest smile
The sweetest touch the heart most open
I didn't want to tell the truth

I didn't want to name your name
Todd, you boy of deepest promise
Todd, O sugar, honey, spark
Todd, who sleeps the purest sleep

The sleep of the guiltless man
Your heart a mansion so much space
You've enough love for the Keystone State
O Todd, and room enough for me.
