Thistle Down

By Ethel

Was It Love?

He never looked,
Deep in my eyes.
To make my heart,
Go twice the size.

He never touched,
His lips to mine.
Nor told me,
I was cherry-wine.

He never held,
Me for a minute.
Nor thought perhaps,
That he could win it.

No arms of his,
Were ever tight.
And to press my hand,
Was never right.

No make believe,
Was stretched above.
O tell me...tell me,
Was It Love?


E.P. 1908 - 1989
