Roundel: The Saloonkeeper’s Love
Her smile behind the bar stirs hidden fire,
he feels his heart lean softly to her light,
and dreams she holds his trembling wish in light.
He warms beneath her glance, a rising fire
as lanterns gleam and soften shadowed light.
Her smile behind the bar stirs hidden fire
He feels his heart lean softly to her light.
Their whispered jokes spark embers into fire
While ale refracts her grin in amber light
And draws him near the promise in her light
Her smile behind the bar stirs hidden fire
He feels his heart lean softly to her light
And dreams she holds his trembling wish in light
