She
Oh, mother Sappho! I call upon you
There's a girl of who we need to confer
She came into my life like morning dew,
And stayed like a ceaseless winter froze her.
And winters can be harsh, may burn like fire,
But I will stand the ice for her soft soul,
For her enchanting voice like a gold lyre,
And for the way she commands in life's roles.
Because I fear the day that winter ends.
I fear when the ground will be void of snow,
That time of the year when time seems to blend.
No sun is worth being put in such throes,
I surely would be in that horrid pain
Without she that is the blood in my veins
