In her mind’s eye she sits at his
feet
Overawed and eager to imbibe
For knowledge is to her a rare treat
She knows not her own merit sweet
Keen to be a pupil worthy and bright
In her mind’s eye she sits at his feet
His talent is immense and gladly does greet
Her avarice for learning that he sees,
For knowledge is to her a rare treat
Fervently she grasps, filling her blank sheet
Unwilling to leave his side even mentally
In her mind’s eye she sits at his feet
Is this devotion or love that she does greet
Is it a lover or a pupil that does him seek
For knowledge is to her a rare treat
Create many a magic when they do meet
Sail together through uncharted oceans deep
In her mind’s eye she sits at his feet
For knowledge to her is a rare treat
