Nothing luminous everything drab, 

The streets are wet without the cheer of rain

The window plants, too weary to complain,

Droop drearily; a last attempt to grab

Their interest, then fade. We need a girlie dear

Dark hair, blue eyes, to sing a song maybe

To give out kisses and kind words to me,

Or just to be around. She’s far, I fear,

Return to us tomorrow; come not late,

And free us from our melancholic state.

One pansy in a window box 

Addresses several others

She nods and waves her head about...

When coming out into the evening air

The sky is filled with promise, blue or clouded

The streets are joy, the bus beyond compare...
