My Elegant Maiden

My vast maiden,you inspire me to write,
How I love the way you talk,walk and look,
Invading my mind day and through the night,
Always dreaming about the reaping hook,
Let me compare you to a splendid spoon,
Your are more gorgeous,elegant and big,
Great sun heats the blended peaches of June,
And summertime has the sycamore fig,
How do I love you?let me count the ways,
I love your epic bosoms,lips and eyes,
Thinking of your supple lips fills my days,
My love for you is the lovely joys.
  Now I must away with a major heart,
  Remember my fine words whilst we're apart.
