“Would you kiss me, m‘Lord?” “Lass, what are ye doing in my bedchamber? Ye must go before the maid takes number of the guest, I cannot be found with thee here..alone!” “But, m’Lord, I have never been kissed and I so want to learn.” “Sweet God in heaven, lass, have ye no shame? I cannot take advantage of a raven haired beauty such as thyself? Thou art a bonny sight, indeed and I am honored by thy innocence...but what do ye mean ye have not tasted of a man’s lips? This cannot be!” “Ah, but it’s true, I have wandered these halls for years, lost, alone and languishing with only my dreams to sustain me....sigh...’tis is a sad life for a lass such as myself.” “Come closer, lass, let me gaze into these eyes for I cannot believe ye breath speak truth!” “Aye, a bloody King’s ransom if I lie! I speak the truth, m'Lord,” “The lass displays a bit of temperment! This is a most delicious invitation and by me Lord’s favor I have done nothing to earn such an honor." “Nay, m’Lord, it is I who am honored.” “By all that is holy, one kiss would nigh be sustaining for me” “Please, m’Lord, one kiss and I shall take my leave.” “Sweet lass, one kiss, and I shall take thee.” Emily [This message has been edited by emily (edited 12-11-2001).] |

Very well done. Sounds as if someone will become a great favorite of her Lord. |

I love this. It has a mischievious innocence about it...and I love how you present the struggle of the man. Your storm of assumption feeds anger I am calm enough to hold inside. Don't pretend to know me if you've never put stretched out your heart with since |

This is a fun poem. I like the progression. And with tongue in cheek (no pun intended *S*) wonder if he will faulter. Dan Death comes not when we cease to breathe, but when we cease to dream. |

Oh how I do love the ways of old, with maidens fair in search of love.....Need we a Knight to pleasure the maiden? Nicely written...much enjoyed this...I am sure this maiden will not wander the halls for long. |
