Thine Azure Eyes and Flaxen Hair

-->
Thine azure eyes and flaxen hair,
Thine supple breasts, the golden pair.

I asked sly Cupid to secure for me
Thy constant love as gift from thee

He balked, “There is no one as she.
Such noble traits in one could never be.”

It’s true, so fill your trusted quiver
And let her heart that arrow sever.

He flew away with intent and haste
And hovered above my lady chaste.

He set the arrow, the string pulled taut.
The sacred arrow pierced her heart.

She rushed to me with radiant joy.
“Until forever, you’ll be my boy.”

Love’s poison entered both our souls.
Our mine and thine became one whole.

And though each day was not sublime,
We loved our way “’til the end of time.”
