My Lioness

MY LIONESS

            My Sweetheart! A competent CEO,
             born under constellation Leo,
            acting reacting as majestic Lioness.
            Yet she is my pretty princess,
            Miss perfect, my pride not to hide 
           to select her as future bride.
          
          My dreams soar high fluttering weary wings of hope
             eagerly waiting with wobbling heart for early scope
                   to come close, also to propose!
                  Will she accept or refuse? Who knows?
               Hazy hesitation, misty confusion all around!
             I wish, my voice ’I love you’ as echo to rebound.
             
              Her complex mental constitution,
              now running on wrath and aggression.
             When will melt on dissociation,
            yielding affection and compassion
           on sensual passionate amorous flow? 
           Will our mutual love ever glitter and glow?
         
        *              *               *                      *  *
                 What a pleasant surprise!
                 At dawn a dulcet Sunrise.
             My fairy standing close at my doorstep
             My heart beats rose above head to escape.
             ‘Dear, I love you’, the bold lioness told,
              ‘Let’s venture for our new abode.’
