My dear madam:
I often look up from my work and out the window
And through the early morning haze of golden fairy dust
See you glide by my hideaway from whence I view the quiet green road below
My sylvan refuge shields me from all wandering eyes but yours
The big hound catches my attention
as she prowls along the lane
A tall blond with long legs
Somewhat resemblant of her companion
Elegant and free
Bold in her nuzzling
Shy with her glances
I see you briefly look toward my window
But your focus is the hound
A magical rapport as you move in unison
Matched in repartee
Spellbound as if intoxicated by an elfin elixir
And you walk on
But I note a tiny glimpse over your shoulder at me
I nod but you've no notion of my small acknowledgement
Lost perhaps in the light reflection of greenery against the pane
