Subject(s): Flirtation;longing


IN hood of blue's soft, warm embrace
(Just edged with frills of dainty lace
That coyly kiss her blooming cheek,
Where dimples play at hide and seek)
I see a maiden's winsome face.

Ah! had I but the skill to trace
Upon the outstretched canvas' space
That classic profile, purest Greek,
In hood of blue!

Alas, I've not; but from my place
Beside her, when at rapid pace
We fly o'er snowy hill-sides bleak,
I gaze in eyes that almost speak,
And feel I'm drawn, -- towards charming Grace,
In hood of blue.
