Delightful Threshold Playful Parchment

Small moated manorhouse oriel windows silver mists
White damask silver and crystal tinkling chime sounds
Yew and privet hedges grew over the rose brick facade 
Overlooking a small pond and fountain leading toward
Poodle topiary garden path forking onto a  glinting river
Through the maze her  blushing complexion reddened
The scent of his warm breath fresh musky and alluring
Young ladies are  drawn to him like metal to a magnet
Curved hedge edges came to a dead end Rich chuckle
In the midst of the privy maze safetys kept and hemmed
Savouring  forgotten  scents of deep  pink  rose blooms
Powerful  blood-red  rose perfume that wafted  in waves
