So that I may forever know, in thine eyes, your alter of solitude.

To gaze into the depths that you confide

And to descry the welkin that there within deeply reside.

Where angels soar with plumage of unspoiled silk

To drink upon your kindness that be like the honeysuckles milk,

Where I find the meaning of having strength of a soul

That fills me with such wondrous hope like a overfilling bowl.

Such conquering beryl eyes! Such ever expanding azure skies!

With lips like roses, and skin like tulips, you are ever so calm.

Even with uncontested life that hold with such delicate palm?

I'm sure though that the inside your heart flutters like a butterflies wings

And your poetical mind wishes to sing,

Though with delight can you explore

The classical page, the muses lore.

It will never be as half as blessed

As the light you spread with such unhindered zest.

For I may render all I see

Into palatable melodies,

But you can beat upon this heart

And with a single smile show its smart,

As if you be some drug designed

To banish all other women from my mind,

I beseech thee

Please remain as the Halo of my memory.
