I COULD not be so well content, So sure of thee, Señorita, But well I know you must relent And come to me, Lolita! The Caballeros throng to see Thy laughing face, Señorita, Lolita. But well I know thy heart's for me, Thy charm, thy grace, Lolita! I ride the range for thy dear sake, To earn thee gold, Señorita, Lolita; And steal the gringo's cows to make A ranch to hold Lolita! | Discover our Poem Explanations and Poet Analyses!Other Poems of Interest...WESTERN WAGONS by STEPHEN VINCENT BENET DRIVING WEST IN 1970 by ROBERT BLY IN THE HELLGATE WIND by MADELINE DEFREES A PERIOD PORTRAIT OF SYMPATHY by EDWARD DORN ASSORTED COMPLIMENTS by EDWARD DORN AT THE COWBOY PANEL by EDWARD DORN TIS A LITTLE JOURNEY by ANONYMOUS |
