Ebullition Tgif

Eased onto an exsiccated embankment
Enchanted by the empyreal expanse
Exhausted from day's endued earning
Yet elated at the endowment of esprit
Enjoying earth's earnest, emoting eye of
Emerald engraved in ecru in eyes that are 
Endlessly enamoured with all existence; I
Echo 'er expression of enthralled euphoria 
Evoking an effusive extolment of Eminence

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

Quay For One

Ennui crept up and perched high
On the shoulder of a roving mind
Hand in hand with gales, now spy 
Rainbow shrouded in a misty pall
Golden friend of the sky just left

Entrusted to me a sleepless daze
Though my partner be ever nigh
None but a grey expanse and I be
Mind and sky in murk so cloaked
Verve bubbles blown off the shore

End the free fall into grief, I must
Flailing 'til I find a foothold, a frame
Set alight my moony essence, I will
And imbrue the balmy tinges of élan 
Rekindle cinders of passion, I shall.
