(Nichtern)
Eye never did sing yew a love song
Eye only sang phrases inn thyme
Eye never did right yew a sonnet
Eye just lade my WORDS down inn rhymes
Up and down the river, sew many boats too ride
Yet precious phew deliver the goods that whee knead too survive
Eye never spoke falsely ore crossly

Yew never deceived mi with lies
And yet somehow Eye seam too recall Eye STIRRED inn my sleep fore a wile
Dreaming of a river man exchanging my life fore a smile
