 How do You Tell a Girl?

   A Lamentation by Adrian Mailenna

   For a girl I tried to tell.  Thirty-first of October, Year of Our Lord
Two Thousand Four.

   How do you tell a girl her smile glitters, whenever you close your eyes?
How do you say that her laughter echoes within your private dreams?  What
do you tell a girl you long to hold, when she's stolen your breath away? 
What do you say, when most you want your words to sing, but then they will
not come?
