Ursula-my friend,
My quiet, distant, rarely seen friend
From days of yore.
How calm you are.
how you glide through your days
Keeping your private thoughts to yourself.
How the urgencies and anxieties
That plague every life
- are so well contained in yours.
And in your soft green eyes
I feel a happy acceptance, born of time.
Born in my brotherhood of your Sam.
My very European friend,
Made in the turmoil of youth
And so warmly regarded then, now and beyond.
Ursula my lady, always a lady,
You posess a tender spot of pleasantness
In the corner of my mind.
With affection

Ursula-my friend,
My quiet, distant, rarely seen friend
From days of yore.
How calm you are.

Keeping your private thoughts to yourself.

And in your soft green eyes
I feel a happy acceptance, born of time.
Born in my brotherhood of your Sam.
My very European friend,
Made in the turmoil of youth
And so warmly regarded then, now and beyond.
Ursula my lady, always a lady,
You posess a tender spot of pleasantness
In the corner of my mind.
