My life is grown a witchcraft place
Through gazing on thy form and face.
Now ‘t is thy Smile’s soft sorcery
That makes my soul a melody.
Now ‘t is thy Frown, that comes and goes,
That makes my heart a page of prose.
Some day, perhaps, a word of thine
Will change me to thy VALENTINE.
(Madison Julius Cawein)
