At a Dinner Party [1889]
by Amy Levy

With fruit and flowers the board is deckt.
The wine and laughter flow;
I'll not complain - could one expect
So dull a world to know?

You look across the fruit and flowers,
My glance your glances find.-
It is our secret, only ours,
Since all the world is blind.
