Adolescence and Infatuation
A hasty glance and still my heart leaped up
as ever to burst thrills within my breast.
If I knew more on the ways of romance,
I might not excite like some dizzy pup.
Just staring at his house excites love dreams.
I walk away from his home in love’s trance,
lost in the sweetest fantasy soared flames
and love schemes gleam in my heart streams.
I look for him on each sidewalk I pass,
in each of our town's retail window frames,
in any restaurant where I might sup
and I seek four leaf clover’s help in grass.
If one day he would turn and notice me,
he would see all the ways our souls agree,
he would know I am his heart’s appointee
and, I know, his would burst a ‘whoopee.’
