That girl



I really loved that girl
Was that the truth? Her eyes agreed

That girl I really loved
Her eyes agreed that was the truth

I loved that girl? Really?
The eyes agreed; was that her truth?

The truth was I really loved that girl
That; her eyes agreed

That agreed, I loved her eyes
That girl really was the truth

That girl, her eyes I really loved
Agreed that was the truth

  5. You’ve really grooved with this one, Robin! Such a sweet love poem in every permutation and you’ve made great use of punctuation, which is, I think, the trick behind the form.

  9. Yes, she was. And the speaker did. And love looks wonderful on them, that was the truth.

    I so love what you do with love and relationships, Robin.
