Amoresia

<p>O sweet scented growths ever unfolding<br /> And daring thieves of Hyperion's Light <br /> Thy fauvist beauty to my love must bring <br /> In the fullness of day or in lunar's light <br /> A rainbow's palate her heart to inspire<br /> And open its gate to a loving admirer <br /> Whose own heart is filled with love and desire<br /> And with passion burns as our star's own fire.<br /> Yet above all else you must stay sunfast <br /> Lest the power of your hues will not last<br /> And their message too short will not persist <br /> Alas my deep affections she may resist.<br /> But if in all this you will succeed <br /> Your life's sacrifice will honour love's deed.</p>
