I know of a place where a ruby was born to quietly bless The beloved, who cry for sweeter songs to hear However, would we be amazed nonetheless If what made them smile today Tomorrow; Brought no cheer
How hidden can the heart remain, who wanders Within this place I write of to you now Can its desires ever be squandered Because the always want of more Keeps appreciation Disallowed
Would a trusting eye be found in silent chill Its very heart and soul be shaken If it were to find that, the ruby cannot fill That which is never satisfied And always seeking New sensations
