CHANSONETTE, by                    
First Line: Dimpled cheeks and scarlet lips
Last Line: Maidens all were meant to woo!
Subject(s): Puberty


DIMPLED cheeks and scarlet lips,
Pink and dainty finger-tips,
Glowing blushes, fragrant sighs,
Looks dove-sweet from starry eyes,
These do show this saying true --
Maidens all were meant to woo!

Guerdon dear shall be his meed
Who will be Love's thrall in deed:
Strollings 'neath a mellow moon,
Whispers soft as rain in June,
Kisses, maybe, one or two --
Maidens all were meant to woo!
