Girl Friends

On the bench at the piano, playingVery close together,Fingers touching one another lightly—Light as any feather—Sat they, smiling to each other brightlyWhat their hearts were saying.One would turn the sheets of music overGently, for the other,As a kind and sympathetic sisterHelps a younger brother;Till at last she bent and swiftly kissed herAs one would a lover.NORMAN R.

On the bench at the piano, playing

Very close together,

Fingers touching one another lightly—

Light as any feather—

Sat they, smiling to each other brightly

What their hearts were saying.

One would turn the sheets of music overGently, for the other,As a kind and sympathetic sisterHelps a younger brother;Till at last she bent and swiftly kissed herAs one would a lover.

One would turn the sheets of music over

Gently, for the other,

As a kind and sympathetic sister

Helps a younger brother;

Till at last she bent and swiftly kissed her

As one would a lover.
