Bob Quigley Poet Rondeau

Were I That Man

Were I that man I want to be
The man that I wish you to see
The one who came to you each night
Your senses in the dark excite
Emotions that but I set free

Were I the one you longed to see
And to your heart I held the key
The one who set your fears to flight
Were I that man

But that I were a bel esprit
Whose wit and words clove thee to me
Unlock your heart, passion incite
The smoldering flame of love ignite
Two hearts entwined, together flee
Were I that man
