Meaningless

“What is thy meaning, love?” he cried,

     “I fear that something is amiss;

You claim to love me, yet you hide

     Your head whene’er I steal a kiss.”

“Fear not I pray, Alphonso, dear,

     And cast aside uneasiness;

Although my actions may be queer,

     My meaning is quite meaningless.”
