Can She See Me?

And into her sad young eyes,
I saw her searching vainly for her mother,
Knowing in her heart she has gone,
Deep in the mists that their time brought along.

And into her sad blue eyes,
I look around to see if she sees me,
For if she handed gave me a one and only chance,
I'd find her happiness with eyes which gave her my eternal thanks.

And into her sad ageing eyes,
I saw her searching for her red childhood bows,
That she wore in her wild long hair,
That she wore with her happiest gaze,
When she was lively as a child.
