TO THE GIRL WITH THE LONG BROWN HAIR



                  a high school locker calls to me…

 

                  slip inside your magic spell

                  at a time when no one can tell

 

                  muse, teach her to swim in the sea of words

                  and together, let us build a circle…

 

            It’s difficult to write to one you know

            Without putting yourself in a boat of woe

 

            Of course you can laugh or cry at this

            Whatever one will be your wish

 

            Really all I want to say

            Is when you walk towards my way

 

            It’s nice to see your pretty face

            Because it makes my chemistry race

 

            And many times I have found

            I’d love to lay with you

           

            And hear the sound

            Of my successful woo

 

            But this of course is sheer fantasy

            And we are prisoners of reality

 

            So for now why should we rush

            This possible or probable little crush
