And so, . . . an other ONE saw those eyes. A mere glance told a distant tale, So intense, so sensitive; The ONE allowed a gentle smile . . . In company with a single teardrop That could not bear to fall Or dampen that oh-so-lovely smile. As ONE slipped away . . . Those eyes dared a meer glance, then closed . . . As longing fairly faded in swift retreat To return for the hiding place; Always near enough for rapid escape, Where solitude feigned comfort, And comfort denied fear. Yet, desire existed . . . Fleeting for a distant tale.

A DISTANT TALE
And so, . . . an other ONE saw those eyes. A mere glance told a distant tale, So intense, so sensitive; The ONE allowed a gentle smile . . . In company with a single teardrop That could not bear to fall Or dampen that oh-so-lovely smile. As ONE slipped away . . . Those eyes dared a meer glance, then closed . . . As longing fairly faded in swift retreat To return for the hiding place; Always near enough for rapid escape, Where solitude feigned comfort, And comfort denied fear. Yet, desire existed . . . Fleeting for a distant tale.
