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 OluDola2019.

Thanks for sharing this... exposing your thoughts through your unique poetic style. 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.
