Harriet's Lament

So much going on

It took my breath away

But to match it

I doubt I'll see another day

Escorted by a handsome man

Enjoyed great music in the hall

And then an almost tragic dance

When Myna took a fall

Action in the lobby

Requiring the Sheriff's aid

Wild betting in the card room

Where threatening words were said

CG being serenaded

While 3Gun did his rounds

Entertainment in full swing

Delightful in the sounds

Then strolling home arm in arm

My escort at my side

No kiss goodnight, his heart was taken

At least he never lied

Wave goodnight with saddened looks

I locked the door and sighed

There among my treasured books

He wouldn't see I cried
