Bird of Romance

She was not a virgin But with beauty, she did reign She was already married But she arose to be adored She was a widow Her beauty and pride did glow Borne already two children But with second love, she was barren To her lover, she was also older But at first sight, the eyes of the Emperor became brighter On just a gaze itself, he couldn't resist As her beauty penetrated to profoundly persist When love had come She wheedled with welcome With intense ignition she bowled With fire of love, his blood became boiled Love comes all at once! Duo drowned deep in love, thence!! The balance tilted in her favor Triggered was the mighty Emperor's valor He too was handsome His love story was awesome! Her beauty propelled her to become empress Valor and victory he enjoyed with her were endless He loved her to the point of madness As he was terribly tempted by her cuteness He held her like a treasure With her alone, he got true pleasure! His family felt her as the flawed company But he resisted and held her as the honey Though the Emperor was gloriously grand He won with wedlock too, to hold her hand She was the constant object of his thought As she alone drove him to new heights of delight She ruled his heart and soul She continued to reign his life joyful Her love was what he ever upheld Even in the midst of every battlefield She kept the flame of love burning From the beginning unto his mourning! Entire Europe was under his rule But he found her alone as the sole Endless authority over entire Europe he enjoyed But without her, world appeared for him as void! For the sake of an heir, she was divorced Yet, he continued to remain as if seduced Such amount of true love, none could address Her flag flown high as the ever enticing empress She is adored as the most seductive woman Her name and fame is known even to a layman His heart ever yearned only for her alliance Yes! Josephine was more than a bird of romance! His love remained with the same wavelength Even with old age, when he lacked physical strength His love for her stood as unflawed Even when death had shadowed History kissed him with pages of a mighty era Just his name alone enough, no need to say extra! Love embraces leaders and Generals too!! His true love was alive even after the Waterloo!!! Napoleon Bonaparte remains forever with worldwide fame! Honoring the true love, he pronounced last, only her name!! Thus even an Emperor will be bound, if you are a loving wife!!! His love story confirms this as the cardinal message of his life!!!!
