You Can Find Me

Had you known me earlier
You would have found me as
A bud desperate to unfold its silken assets.

Had you known me earlier
You would have found me as
A churn in a maiden’s heart.

Now that you long to know me
Bear me in your heart like a candle in the dark
Or warmth by your hearth,

H-A-P-P-I-N-E-S-S!
