HOW COULD I REACH THEE?
Melvin Banggollay
How could I reach thee
When you're like the sky
Unlike me forever down
among the dust in town.
You wear crown of beads
with glitering golden heads
Unlike me forever a clown
smiling to earn a pound.
You sip nectar of honey
In a glass for the wealthy
While I dig deep my hand
only to live just like a man.
How can I ever reach thee
When I felt so unworthy
To hold you in this palm
with nothing but a psalm.
Nice piece though left hangging..........i wonder what crown she wears! ! ! ! ! ! ! ! Thanks
