Going to him happy letter !

Going to him ! Happy letter !
Tell him -
Tell him the page I did'nt write -
Tell him - I only said the syntax -
And left the verb and the pronoun - out -
Tell him just how the fingers hurried -
Then - how they waded - slow - slow -
And then you wished you had eyes in your pages -
So you could see what moved them so -
Tell him - it was'nt a practised writer -
You guessed - from the way the sentence toiled -
You could hear the boddice tug, behind you -
As if it held but the might of a child -
You almost pitied it - you - it worked so -
Tell him - No - you may quibble there -
For it would split his heart, to know it -
And then you and I, were silenter.
Tell him - night finished - before we finished -
And the old clock kept neighing " day " !
And you - got sleepy -
And begged to be ended -
What could it hinder so - to say ?
Tell him - just how she sealed you - cautious !
But - if he ask where you are hid
Until tomorrow - happy letter !
Gesture coquette - and shake your head !
