Frailties overlooked--
**** is fragrance, snoring a nocturne
with affection.

Often think I'm odd
to fall in love--
a well too deep
to crawl out unscathed.

So I stay outwith
peeping inside the pit,
hearkening to sundry sounds
of infectious laughs--

jealous--

I too cheerfully fell
into affection's well.

How I was wrong!

Silvery sound love issues
forth,
but
m'heart can't dance
any more.

A maidenly form with goodly balcony:
Chic design of an unrivalled Architect.
Finely balusters decorate her dreamy
Shape--especial from fore to aft.

As the Shulamite's apples in Solomon's
Pleasing courtyard is her love in my
Heart, exchanging thus my flagons
With her berries on the bed of sapphire,

Until dawn choruses enter the day's ear--
Heaven's chandelier beams into the bower.

Living in a complex world
a complicated life,
trusting in the simple God.

In a decanting mood,
body hankers for some ****
feast.

Striking words that ignite
an inferno.
Flame that's never infinite.
