LOVE AT FIRST SIGHT
Not long ago I fell in love,
But unreturned is my affection—
Pays little heed in my direction.
In fact, I'd had my arm around her;
How unresponsive I have found her.
Her manners quite the wrong way rub me:
To let me love her—and then snub me!
She shows no gladness when she spies me—
And doesn't even recognize me.
Seem asking if I can support her
A lady like her father's daughter.
And let me add that I intend to:
So fit for her to be a friend to.
By Jove, I'll make her love me one day;
And she'll be three weeks old on Sunday!
... It's hard to have to tell
How unresponsive I have found her.
