If I from you one prize could earn
What would it be that I would yearn?
‘Tis only this and nothing more,
From you Fair Rose, I would ask for.
A kiss, a kiss, a single kiss,
For this I’d brave the dark abyss,
For but one kiss upon the cheek,
Is all from you that I would seek.
To feel your lips against my face,
To feel soft touch of angel’s grace,
Aye, but one kiss and nothing more,
I’d seek from you, my heart’s adore.
And in return, I'd give you this,
A kiss, a kiss, a single kiss.

Fair Rose, how would I kiss thee dear?
I would kiss thee lightly on thy brow,
As whisper softly in thine ear,
Sweet words of love to thee avow.
A rising warmth as lips in yearning meld,
Tender touch of satin rose in warm embrace,
Within mine arms, thy gracious charms in passion held,
Thou art the light of heaven's grace,
Sweet taste of honeyed mead, desire's delight,
Dear Cecilia, music springs from forth thy breast,
Doth soothe my pain in glow of Luna's light,
As sate my inner fire, love's desire, mine lover's quest.
Fair Rose, to thee I make this mortal vow,
How would I kiss thee goddess fair?  With love and tenderness is how.

If you wrote me a poem like this, I'd melt right before your eyes.  You are a romantic and whatever woman you wrote this for is very blessed indeed.  Well written and so much what women want - tenderness and love.  Awesome!

I am a sucker for such poems...swooning over here and wishing for the day someone makes me feel this way...the way your poem does

If at first you don't succeed destroy all the evidence that you tried.
