Upon a night unlit by moon or star,
I gazed upon the visage of a lass.
And though the night was cold and she was far,
I still could see her image through the glass.
I set aside the mirror and I thought
Of everything surrounding her, I’d seen.
It settled in my brain and then I sought
To use the information I had gleaned.
And so I set to trek across the world
I knew just where to look from all the clues.
I crossed entire oceans for the girl.
And ran her to the ground in Kathmandu.
I told the girl my story, then I wept.
I handed her my heart and then I slept.
