These Lines
I have waited
And still wait
For break of dawn
and Nita, my woman
I have sorrowed
And still sorrow
This hook of fate
Delay not my woman!
I have thirsted
And still thirst
At the fountain of love
And still wait for her.
Now the sun has risen
And workers hurry to town
And children back to school
But still no sign of Nita!
Nita, if these lines
should reach you
Hasten!
My heart is sore with yearning!
