You can put a tuxedo on a goat, but. Still a goat.

it may not always be so;
and i say that if your lips,
which i have loved should touch another’s,
and your dear strong fingers clutch his heart,
as mine in time not far away;
if on another’s face your sweet hair lay
in such silence as i know,
or such great writhing words as,
uttering overmuch,
stand helplessly before the spirit at bay;

if this should be, i say if this should be—
you of my heart, send me a little word;
that i may go unto him, and take his hands,
saying, Accept all happiness from me.
Then shall i turn my face and hear one bird
sing terribly afar in the lost lands.
