She wasn't a woman
who inspired love.
Only affection.
It was absurd to be
jealous over her.
She was like
a clear deep pool
in a forest glade
into which
it's heavenly to plunge,
but it's neither less cool
nor less crystalline
because a tramp
and a gypsy
and a gamekeeper
have plunged into it
before you.
