SECRET WORDS

by Dr. Rick McGrath,Ph.D.
(Modesto, CA)

Fear not my dear friend that I’ll reveal
The pleasures of you that I now feel.
No eye shall see, nor anyone descry
When I catch sight of you my sigh.

No other ear shall hear of this love
For it is for you alone to know of.
The only way anyone will find out
If, when I die, the physicians doubt.

The cause of my death, my broken heart
Pierced by your flaming lover’s dart.
And upon this broken heart they will see
Written the words I hope to say to thee.
