Dolapo Lawal Poet Rhyme

Smitten

Met me a nymph as I laid by a lake
Spoke her to me, earth, did I quake!
Trail of stardust in her noble wake
Fell on me some of her fairy flake
Hers the magic, my heart the stake

Oh, sweet affliction! My darling Jane 
Lowly poet be this chap, nary a thane
Would that I were your dashing swain
But my place know I, for disdain I feign
As duke you wed, in me shalt you reign

Meanwhile, I greet you with the love of the Lord, expressed by John 3:16 of the Bible, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Be blessed.
