A Wonderful Night

 

A truly wonderful  night

even if you creamed me right

at golf, it's no slight

because I held my maiden tight.

 

To you I cannot explain,

when with you how I feel,

mine heart is no longer steel

nor does it beat in vain.

 

You know not how it melt

when your soft touch it felt

or how when you smile

it pleases me all the while.

 

So enough of this verse,

when I touch your skin terse

I know then it is true...

that Poetry is you...

 

But it is your soul

making it's heavenly toll

that enlightens the night

My heart beats with might!
