PostPoems Be Artistic. Be Creative. Be Inspired!

You met me many years past

To be a darling of my heart

I loved you and you loved me too

And you said we would never part



You are a girl of your own kind

All at once left me in the lurch

What happened that you changed your mind

Begged for yourself to make no search



Some relatives of yours and mine

Were fussy at the noble tie

They rushed us with an ill design

And we in the last ditch were to die



You had sincere reverences

For your parents and kith and kin

Too pretty to pose your differences

My gorgeous girl I could not win



How odder is that pierces me

That ere deserting you were meek

One hundred kisses were at least

You showered upon my lips and cheek



No doubt your kisses were lusty

You embraced me to bid farewell

Your amorous eyes were too thirsty

To hide the passions - I can tell



You are innocent I do know

I have nothing to complain of

I did my best to have a go

I looked for you while I played golf



At climax was the tragic show

I suffered from the severest shock

Though I survived the fatal blow

Your memories sweet I could not lock



You put your courtship on the shelf

For the oriental traditions

By subtracting me and yourself

Howe'er you made no additions



For I came to know that so far

You are aloof and all alone

I wonder what a lass you are

You have kept your word on your own



Daily a score of times at least

I remember your fortitude

Your cherished notion is a feast

You creep into my solitude



Your fragrance I smell in the air

Your loveliness still fresh and fair

With my heart filled with woe I woo

My lady! tell me when and where?
