Emmeline by dawn light
borrows roses from your bed
Emmeline by moonlight
brings back petit fours instead.
Italy had its masters
who loved Emmeline with their oils
touched by God in Trinity
and Emmeline in trefoils.
Emmeline in summer
reads your letters until the fall
then she wades into the water
to the boatmen's barcarolle.

The trefoil flower has some interesting meanings.
