Acrostic in last stanza
ICE WATER IN A VASE
Ice cold shasta, right from the start -
My first day at work,
“I know how much you make”
and the molten stare of sun from her yellow eye.
She loves me…She loves me not
I can’t penetrate her southern heart.
Well, bless it! She spied a yankee right from the start.
She’s packing vitamin c in her indelible leaves,
resistant to my northern charm.
She loves me…she loves me not
Digging a garden, expanding her farm town.
Always in control, always right.
I am just a pawn, but good for a shoulder cry.
She has taught me much, nonetheless.
Yes! She loves me…loves me not
