Dusk, 'Til Dawning Light : Autoinversion Form

Once, I loved a lady sweetly,    stole my heart away quite neatly;    dreaming of her every night,    from each dusk, 'til dawning light.    Making love, each eve went fleetly;    when came morn she'd leave discreetly.    From each dusk, 'til dawning light,    holding her with all my might.    Brewed me tea, made life alright    from each dusk, 'til dawning light,    through the day she came to greet me,    always there with me completely.    From each dusk, 'til dawning light,    I loved her then with all my might.    She completely came to greet me,    most discreetly, fleetly, neatly...    Once, I loved a lady sweetly!

Kind, though those compliments of mine may be, Carol, they were completely inspired by naught but the quality and appeal of your fine penship, Dear Poetess. I thank you most warmly and graciously for your lovely compliment of this cute little piece, too, Carol, and wish the very same to you for your weekend. "Love" is a most powerful word to close with, M'Dear, but it's only natural that we love and highly regard our fellow-poets, eh? Love, Rascal
