Brenda

she's balanced beautiful and brave
like a boat in the blue
stars to go by her eyes
her words whispers in waves

wisdom is blowing her sail
Brenda's an Irish name
her body beauty to admire
makes me burn with desire

brands my heart her own cattle
haul up seawater in a bucket
quench this fire if you have to
or rather

let it smoulder a little
