Good Morrow Milord
If I were one
of the ornaments upon your cloak,
how I would cherish my moments there -
to ride freely upon that precious shoulder
as life rushes towards thee in ribbons of beauteous color!
If I were one
of the tassels upon your boot,
how I would greet the cold exhilaration of a bitter wind -
to be as in flight through an enchanted woodland
delighting in the fervor of this fast and glorious beast!
If I were a
bit of snuff expectant within your silver box,
how I would anticipate thy certain will to expend -
so that I might flush thy cheeks as the hue of primroses
as your blood quickens and conveys me on my journey!
If only I
could exist amongst thy things, traverse as they do,
how I would weep with joy to have your singular scent
as familiar to my senses as that of mine own.
This is how handsome and radiant thou art to me!
