She Such a Ravishing Sweet Georgia Peach

She Such A Ravishing Sweet Georgia Peach I at naked horror of truth laid bare loved her, beauty with long raven hair, that magnificent grace of her sweet soul those long, curly tresses blacker than coal yet such a goddess was beyond my reach, she such a ravishing sweet Georgia peach! I once found the courage to ask her out to taker her to the fair, show her about sadly she was that day flying abroad twas' Fate or else a timing most flawed kissing me soft as she walked away saying, for thy soul I shall this day pray! I at naked horror of truth laid bare. Loved her, beauty with long raven hair. R.J. Lindley, Sept 9th. 1979 Sonnet, ( She of majestic beauty, kindness and grace ) Old Note: (Fate continues its war upon this struggling soul) New Note: Fate and I have fiercely battled for well over 50 years All through those years, I've suffered heartaches and tears Yet a blessed and deserved recompense finally at last came Now aged and a bit wiser, this declawed lion 'tis truly tame.
