Lord's Ignite Her Eyes

His hand in marriage she so bequest
as galloping gallantly the forest a test
her betrothed oblivious to her beauty
his mind focused upon his only duty.
She tried in vain to capture his eyes
left constantly breathing heavy sighs
germs of money blinded him profusely
while she paraded about him loosely.
Attracting attention from another Lord
when some knight of honor drew sword
still her betrothed his eyesight distracted
now knight's sword swingingly enacted.
She cries a flood of tears for obsessing
the one knight who cannot be caressing
her every desire and contention of love.
So many other lord's with tender glove
who'd lay their swords upon her soul soft
gently carrying her to their castle's loft
passionately treating her with much respect
if only she'd allow herself to honestly inspect.
Her beauty reigns as lord's ignite her eyes
succumbing to her desires her sadness dies
she takes the hands of both passionate lord's
honoring them both with respectable rewards.

That wanton women
Sometimes want two.

Esmerelda, I absolutely love that name.

What a terrific poem!  Great first post.

twinsgd, Is that, "Sometimes want two." or "Sometimes want too." or both?

WOW!!!!!! Welcome to Passions, Esmarelda. Lovely name. Maybe it is obvious to everyone else, but is your poetry fact or fiction?

Love and hugs,
Lizzie
