Previously Engaged
Author: Benjamin F. SchenckI understand my uncertain heart
I have been witness to opportunities dance
But reality remains reality
And at this I am previously engaged
I have cultivated the garden
And grown the fruits of venture sought
And though the taste is faint in my mouth
From an inticement of long ago
I have yet to dine in this Eden
But I have planted upon that taste
And I must tend and care
Even though the garden I see yonder
Looks brighter, greener, taller and tastier
I must stay, tend here, for
I am previously engaged
