Those lips that Love’s own lips did take
and fearsome thirst of mine approach,
soft-placed on my own pair, did shake
dire torture, quenched with that mere touch.
But sweet Chagrin was roused once more;
again renewed my two-fold hope:
to find both Sense and Love within
one’s heart with which I could elope.
Delight! O, Fair! How double-blessed.
Past dreams your frame and face are fair!
Combined in you my sated quest:
Enchantment. Love. Full Ardor there:
in yours my own was blessed to find
that dual-charmed Universe of Mind!
I read this and thought it was delightful. It was a gand piece at that. Hope to read more and wish you luck.
