At a Dinner Party, by Amy Levy


(image credit)
With fruit and flowers the board is decked,
     The wine and laughter flow;
I'll not complain--could one expect
     So dull a world to know?

You look across the fruit and flowers,
     My glance your glances find.--
It is our secret, only ours,
     Since all the world is blind.
At a Dinner Party, by Amy Levy
