WITH HIS ARM AROUND HER.
He put his arm around me,
he squeezed me once or twice;
didn't say a word. you know,
Because it was so nice.
Twas evening, by the seaside,
The music low and sweet
Came trembling like the moonshine
In shadows at our feet.
He held his arm around me,
l stood so close TO him
His moustache touched nv forehead
And all the world was dim.
All, that ecstatic pressure,
That touch Of heart to heart,
The sweetest thing in nature,
The tenderest in art.
No whispered words were spoken,
We thought not of the time
We needed no expression
For rapture so sublime.
What's that? Was he proposing?
wouldn't marry Paul.
OF course he wasn't. Both of us
Were waltzing; that WAS all.
Cincinnati Merchant 7rdr
