A poem by Olive Custance

Opal Song

________________________________________________
Title:     Opal Song
Author: Olive Custance [More Titles by Custance]

Shy and wild . . . shy and wild
To my lovers I have been.
Frank and wayward as a child,
Strange and secret as a queen;
Fain of love, and love beguiled,
Yet afraid of love, I ween!

False and true . . . false and true
Is the woman's heart in me . . .
Fair lost faces that I rue,
Golden friends I laugh to see,
Changing, I come back to you,
Never doubt my loyalty!





[The end]
Olive Custance's poem: Opal Song
