Poems (Radford)/I do not Love you Very Much

by Dollie Radford

XXIV

I do not love you very much, Only your tuneful voice,Which, in a happy moment, takes The music of my choice.

I do not love you, dear, at all, Only your merry ways,Which linger in my mind, and set Me dreaming through the days

In truth, I think it is dislike You kindle in my heart,Because you come so joyously To steal so large a part.
