To A Lady Only I Know

Post by polycarp »

Thou art

Cool yet not taciturn

Benign and not frenzy

Wary but not subtle

And the fairest of them all

What more of a dame could be asked?

(ii)

Like a gazelle’s

Are thy curvatures

Like a springtide rose

Thy mild smile

With such a soothing temperance

Unleash you all day

Bundles of sweetness

(iii)

Your palpable beauty radiates

Like light from the sun

Your voice soothes

Like the orchestration of Beethoven

While the sight of your svelte curves

Catapults a mind to the zenith of bliss

And self actualization

(iv)

When you walk the streets

Around you dwells an aura of pleasantness

That sparks a universal appeal

Whose magnetic effects

Always make you like a goldfish

Who has no hiding place

(iv)

Across pleasant leas

In the heart of paradise

Dwell I amidst meanings sublime

When I close my eyes to picture you

(v)

In the final analysis

Be thou informed

That this world plus its host of wares

Are but like a farmland filled with tares

Without you to call my own

(vi)

You’re sure more than not

The peak of reasonable conception

Of beauty at its best

And you’ll ever remain

Not just a source of inspiration

But a fountain of cascading blessings

Thanks LC, as a matter of fact, the beauty of it is the mystery surrounding it. Cheers!
