The eye and the carnation
Collection: "The Alphabet of Confessions"
The garnet carnation and the purple
carnation In the room of happy
days Their perfume make an alcove
For my love whose eye is blue.
The garnet carnation and the pink
carnation At the time when the kiss is taken, the hand I put
on my love with a big eye
perfumes.
If of my love the eye is sad
The purple carnation and the garnet
carnation In their fragrance that so insists
Raniment the hour that rang
And the gesture that comes to go
to my love whose eye is tender.
1954
