A Human Face

So long ago having ended nineteen years in playing I was astonished to taste for the first time a new éclair Though I could not see your face as you were veiled Still a few glimpses gave an idea that your complexion is fair. Chasing veiled faces hoping one day the wind will explore A face, beautiful I expect, I could love and adore. Time whitened my hairs and darkened sensitive skin My dreaming eyes, my loving heart and my thinking brain And I, with a pen to draw your sketch in beautiful words When fell in love, believe me, saw your face in a love stain What a glace, what a grace, a lovely smile on a handsome face, In a mirror, though virtual, saw it; it was my own awesome face!
