I Am Moved

I Am Moved  
A chalet was there with overhung eaves
and there she sat by an elm with its leaves
the rays of the sun embodied her shape
her diaphanous dress left me agape

no one could dissuade my impending scheme
to venture up close and discourse of love
and know that I reached the breadth of my dream
brazen enough to let my love gleam

attempting to plant my seeds for to sow
stunned by her beauty I bid her hello
she gazed up at me and padded a chair
I sat and she smiled to lessen my fear 

she lifted my heart to waft in the air
I entered her Eden for my love to swear
