(64) Irish Maiden I Dream Of Thee

Why am I in love with thee?

My fair maiden, so far, awaits;

I crave to feel thy sweet kiss,

To taste those tender of lips.

Embrace the heart in thy breast;

Hold thee close to my body.

To never to let you go.

We will make love on this night;

When we visit together in our dreams.

Thy gentle hearts touches my soul;

For if reality I will be without ye,

Then from this dream let me never awake.

the tone is very well placed but if you are going to use an "irish" or old english style continue with it throughout the poem; now you have a combination of modern and old enligsh perhaps a touch of the "irish" way of speaking english but overall this piece is very sincere and perfect with the content :)

Ah, I just love romance :) During the summer, I work at a Renaissance Faire and I can imagine the rogues and knights reciting your poem to their lady loves. I really enjoyed the dreamy romantic feel of this. Beautiful work, Chris!

[Judy Ponceby]

Spectacular Chris. Beautiful words.

The succubus is always a " fair maiden", and will do in a pinch, when reality fails, and in dreams suffice to calm the urgency of need. But you must awake and face reality, or perhaps you don't.
I like the "old school" feel of this, and of course Irish maidens are always desireable.:-)
