My Sweetheart's Face | |
| My kingdom is my sweetheart's face, | ||
| And these the boundaries I trace: | ||
| Northward her forehead fair; | ||
| Beyond a wilderness of auburn hair; | ||
| A rosy cheek to east and west; | ||
| Her little mouth | ||
| The sunny south. | ||
| It is the south that I
love best. |
||
| Her eyes two crystal lakes, | ||
| Rippling with light, | ||
| Caught from the sun by day, | ||
| The stars by night. | ||
| The dimples in | ||
| Her cheeks and chin | ||
| Are snares which Love hath set, | ||
| And I have fallen in! | ||
