Marinda
"Marinda, Marinda! Hello miss how are you?"
A fine lad from across the street yelled for her attention,
With her skin as copper as a brown horse, and eyes of the ocean; so blue!
She spun around, only to see it was the farmer's son, Michael Henson!
Michael had just moved back into the neighbourhood recently,
A simple guy, hardly much ever rolled off his tongue,
Marinda waved a hello back, and with her eyes filled with glee,
"Welcome back, my dear" happily, she sung.
For she, Marinda, has always had a special place in his heart,
Delighted, he Michael had certainly known it's her, she is the one,
To Marinda, his Marinda from the other side of the street he did dart,
From that moment onwards Michael and Marinda would hang out, a ton.
As time flew by, hours to days, days to months, months to years Micheal and Marinda were still a thing,
Then came a day, where Marinda was stunned, as he got on his knees and pulled out a ring!
