green-eyed girl
oh hello there, emerald beauty
my sparkling mountainside afternoons
my deepest forests and vast lagoons
oh dear, please know
they'll never be you.
your cocoa powder freckles
and your pretty ski slope nose
no matter where my short life goes
oh darling, i hope you know...
i see you in the branches
of laboring evergreens
and i see your gaze so clearly
in all the most breathtaking scenes
i see my green eye girl
in all her glory
everywhere
no one can be you, ever.
this i solemnly swear.
