Brandi, mercurial and quick to smile
To what aim do you affix your thoughts, I would
know, that we could know ourselves and speak awhile
As all friends, for some length, I imagine should
Brandi, I shall more often reach out in speech
that I may move from where I have so long stood
And perhaps upon this path a clearing reach
There to bow and, if allowed, make my rest
That, to others, someday I may friendship teach
