SYDNEY, by MATTIE WRIGHT
First Line: Wherever sydney may be / the girls exert
Last Line: For sydney's only two.
Subject(s): Girls
First Line: Wherever sydney may be / the girls exert
Last Line: For sydney's only two.
Subject(s): Girls
Wherever Sydney may be
The girls exert their wiles
In earnest competition
For one of his shy smiles.
Perhaps it is his dark eyes
(He's not so very tall)
But I think his indifference
Is a challenge to them all.
For when they want to love him
He finds something else to do
He can't know his good fortune
For Sydney's only two.
