Going to Him Happy letterB
Tell HimC
Tell Him the page I didn't writeD
Tell Him I only said the SyntaxE
And left the Verb and the pronoun outF
Tell Him just how the fingers hurriedG
Then how they waded slow slowH
And then you wished you had eyes in your pagesI
So you could see what moved them soH
-
Tell Him it wasn't a Practised WriterB
You guessed from the way the sentence toiledJ
You could hear the Bodice tug behind youK
As if it held but the might of a childL
You almost pitied it you it worked soH
Tell Him no you may quibble thereM
For it would split His Heart to know itN
And then you and I were silenterM
-
Tell Him Night finished before we finishedO
And the Old Clock kept neighing DayP
And you got sleepy and begged to be endedQ
What could it hinder so to sayP
Tell Him just how she sealed you CautiousR
But if He ask where you are hidS
Until tomorrow Happy letterM
Gesture Coquette and shake your HeadT
