The Joy of Love

The boundless joy I feel when you are near is peerless, much more valuable than gold, and I can scarce restrain a happy tear when your resplendent beauty I behold. Your tresses, silken and so fair lie soft upon your pillow, nature's essence shine, your slender body mesmerizes, oft I long to hold you close and make you mine. Your eyes like sparkling stars so deeply rare imbue whate'er they see with purity; no sweeter verdict pass'd could be my share than be here bless'd for all eternity, safe in your embrace with the world astray I'd lie content, my cares shall fade away.
