the planets aligned when
the gods touched my Gwendolyn
with tresses of scarlet
a phoenix resemblin
the flora aflutter
the fauna a tremblin
the wild things alert
she’s one of their own

the sky itself and the wind
flow through my Gwendolyn
i can’t keep pretendolin
she is my own

when i’m with Gwendolyn
time seems to bendolin
days i’d be spendolin
with her alone

the sun is descendolin
she is transcendolin
forever my Gwendolyn
will be her own

when i’m with Gwendolyn
time seems to endolin
days i’d be spendolin
with her alone

the sun itself and the wind
flow through my Gwendolyn
i can’t keep pretendolin
she is my own
