Amberosia

There she sits pristine and demure

catching the center of mine eye

within a glint of thoughts impure

my breath exhales a forlorn sigh

Beyond few others to compare

a Duchess - far from being trite

I can not help but sit and stare

yearning her face to ingrain sight

Holds herself well, so full of grace

strong - yet passionate - her aura

illumines with her smiling face

long to bathe her in rose flora

I pine to be enwrapped amid

her eyes and silky golden locks

the thought leaves me feeling sordid

must keep inside Pandora's box

Glides across the floor with such ease

her scent it does intoxicate

penultimate sense which to please

never so much to satiate

Penult - there's one more important

her touch - which I will never know

no frets - I'm not a psychophant

with dreams of her 'round my pillow

A mere man who appreciates

the beauty that she possesses

one who just wants to demonstrate

the spell she has cast that vexes

There's no ulterior motive

for me penning these words on down

I know they aren't really pensive

nor fit for this Queen as a crown
