Lad in Love
Thy man amongst the leaves
Standing poised and gallant is he
The patterns shine bright on his sleeves
He is handsome and carefree
He’s thinking of his delightful lover
And her porcelain skin and long golden mane
Above his head, his thoughts start to hover
As he knows that he soon will reign
As dusk begins to set
He longs to see his beloved
Every time is like the first time, they ever met
When he’s in her presence, he never feels unloved
He plans to steal a kiss in the night
For she is worth any misfortune
Even though sometimes, it might feel like a fight
As she pleads her love so slightly it makes me grin
It will all be for nothing if they are caught
But I know that the battle was hard fought
