TO A FRIEND by JOHN GOWDY

First Line: YOUR EYES ARE - BUT I CANNOT TELL
Last Line: THE DEPTHS REVEALED ALONE TO ME.
Subject(s): FRIENDSHIP;

YOUR eyes are -- but I cannot tell
Just what's the color of your eyes,
I only know therein doth dwell
A something that can sympathize,
When selfish love would fail to see
The depths revealed alone to me.
