Gently interrogating,
As I met her eyes
She was already smiling;

No more a girl,
But more Girl than Woman,
Much-desired ‘child of the world’,
Carefree, and cosmopolitan;   

So I say something rude
Hoping she’ll laugh at herself,
But this time she won’t, and I wish I’d said something else;

O, maybe she’s just too much loved
And no longer needs to pretend,
Or is it simply some act she (always) does,
For all her brother’s friends?

There will be dancing on the lawn tonight,
Bodies moved by frantic music in the starlight;

‘No,’ she jokes, she won’t hear my excuses, no,
But I’d much rather we go walking all alone,
And talk of all we know and dance some star-lit dance all of our own.

Bathed in the late sun,
Summer spelled to sleep the tiresome trials 
Of one who dwells the most on what is gone
And too much on a stranger's smile
  
And in the evening                                                                                                                                                                                  
When she came down
Her hair, still wet, close-cut and brown;

O, how she laughed with ease
And wore her beauty so lightly,                                                                                                                                                                                                                                
As if it were some truth but half-perceived,
Though always known to me;

There was dancing on the lawn that night,
Bodies moved by frantic music in the starlight;

Late it was when we walked out together,
The air was sweet, her hand was warm, and I can still remember
How the wheat stirred in the light breeze blown from the heavens;
How it felt like thieving Time was beaten;
And when she laughed, that all the World had been forgiven.

Gently interrogating,
As I met her eyes
She was already smiling…
