My Burgeoning Lady Fair
My love beckons me when she is cold
She once told me that I am too old
She has an ex-boyfriend I understand that still wants to be her man
Friends she has a lot unlike me for I am hot
He never treated her right
He wouldn’t walk with her by moonlight
He wouldn’t rub her beautiful sore feet
He wouldn’t take her on a Jamaican retreat
She is my empress and my days highlight
A goddess supreme in twilight
With her I’m lifted to higher heights
Illuminated she is by red, yellow, and green spot lights
Experience with me things she has never before
She is the gift that makes your heart soar
Let’s stand together in a downpour
The world is our to explore
But as last I am told that I’m just too old
She still call’s me now and then
Things won’t change but then again
The past she no longer will defend
Her heart never given it’s just to lend
I love my precious unfledged friend
I will love her till my days end
She is so warm, gentle, and kind
A love like mine only once she will find
Down lover’s lane we could stroll
With you I get totally out of control
Age is just a number I was once told
And yet I am told that I am just too old
I don't know why I love her so
She is all in life that I ever wanted
By her sweet fragrances I am hunted
I want to never let her out of my sight
I want to love, kiss, and hold her tight
When she is down she bellows to be consoled
My love hates the chill of winter’s cold
Behold for she is breath-taking and stunning
Always on patrol and I her dark knight eagerly pursuing
Exquisite work of art flawless to perfection
In love am I with her fair, gorgeous, and ravishing reflection
My valor I will always uphold
