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.
