DEVIL IN THE DARK

The sun shone in bewilderment, Scornfully it scorch, As Rose plead her fifth amendment, Her good nature made a strife, Lea smirk in disdain , Saith her world has ended. Twice fairer than Lea, In Lea heart lies deceit, She whispers in Rose ear, Come and sit, where Serpent hisses, I will smother thee with kisses, Honey lies secrets not known, In Lea lives the honey. Thrice shy, Rose smiled, Shame to nymphs, her beauty adorns, Alluring nature, men confuse, The Serpent hold the kisses, “Come, let’s dine with the devil” she said. My table is set for thee, Lea.
