VOCABULARY OF LOVE

My love says she likes me

because I'm such a great deipnosophist,

a sanguine fellow

whose susurrus musings

crepitate with a farrago of meanings,

a  protean and hortatory munificence

that brings her to her knees

in delight.

 

I adore her as well

for the beatific rapprochement

she accedes to

even when we expatiate

on and on about things mercurial.

 

Yes, I will always adore

her lissome acquiescence

to the inexorable germanity

of the simple fact

that we're simply

head over heels

for each other,

if you know

what I'm trying to say.
