She sways in rhythm with his caresses
While he tousles her viridescent locks.
Ere long with gentle breath he confesses
His love for her since vernal equinox.
He ceases bluster and vagabond bearing,
Once he feasts eyes on her lush silhouette
Amongst her chartreuse ladies-in-waiting,
Dappled with sunlight like winsome coquette.
She tries her best to resist vagrant beau.
Her heart held captive by his overtures
Foils reason and lets passions overflow.
Throwing caution to the wind she endures.
Let druthers bend to heart's desires, yet find,
Love needs both passion and right state of mind.
Love needs both passion and right state of mind.
