[net.poems] Where Went Wendy?

	Where Went Wendy?

I knew a Wendy once
A wonderful, warm and witty Wendy
With Wendy whom I whiled away an hour.

My friend but not on Earth,
Winds whisked her well behind my reach and grasp
Why love within was not within my power.

I knew and loved
A Wendy woman with eyes which to die for,
Weird wild and gentle Wendy of my dreams

I loved a Wendy once
With love so vast and overwhelming--
Where did Wendy go she once was here it seems

I wonder whether I
Dreamt it all the while the love that once I knew
Which wends its way back the worse to haunt me

I often wonder why
I let me watch and wait and struggle through
Now I wish away the pain that knows she doesn't want me.
