Her Hair Blonde

When I gazed into those chocolate-brown eyes

   and saw something newly wonderful

   in her energy;

(such roar!) in her voluptuous volcano
 
   a brewing tenderness ----

   her Man would be ravished in her love,

   faint to find anything else;

But pearl-doves and soft things 

   in the hardest of him,

   faint to back away, empty

   but to hold her!

Drifting, in chocolate-brown eyes....
