Gentle maiden, why dost thou resist my words? Cans't thou see that I am at a loss? I long to hear thy voice again sweetest that I have ever heard And to gaze ino thine eyes again no matter what the cost Long has the battle raged in mine heart Yea, I am weary and the battle grows long But in thy gentle arms of love I find new strength to start Thy heart sings to me a gentle tune giving my heart they heart's song So gentle maiden, please do not my heart spurn Take my heart and please hold it dear Since thou hast left, for thee have I longed for thee my heart does yearn Without thee, my arms are truly empty and greater grows the fear ------------------------------------------------------------- |

Remove thy gloves, oh tender Knight repose against thy hip and in my hands your heart I'll care while you taste my lips... do not think of battle, nay, do not think of war but only think in my heart to lay, and be pleased of where you are... Sven, you do some good stuff...and this is it, right here... [This message has been edited by Sunshine (edited 07-14-2000).] |

Sir Sven, bravest of Knights, this a very exception piece of writing my friend. I believe you have out done yourself with this one. Every Maiden from far and wide shall beckon for your affections after reading this one. They shall all long to place themselves within your heart and erase all memories of another.

Okay Sir Sven, I agree you are the best, and most kind hearted gentleman I have ever come across... maybe you are the Chosen One.... atleast the best "wooer" (is that a correct word, I wonder?) in down town passion-town!!! wonderful lingeringly romantic touch to the poem... regards, sudhir. |

Sven..... a fair maiden in distress would be most lucky to have a knight such as you ride to the rescue. this was another magnificent piece. I must admit, I've become a collector of your fine work. Keep writing!!!! [This message has been edited by Sunny1 (edited 07-15-2000).] |

Sven, Nice writing here my friend. Very tender plea. I just love knights and days of olde. Lone Wolf Poetry should surprise by fine excess...it should strike the reader as a wording of his own highest thoughts and appear almost a remembrance. -J.Keats |

"Without thee, my arms are truly empty, and so grows my fear." I know what you are saying Sven..I feel the same way right now waiting for my fair maiden to come into my arms. James |
