Avast the waves of countless leagues
A man met a merchant calling out for he
He ripped the sails as he raced to him
Deceiving the gusts and blows without whim
He said to he " I have here where only you'll find"
"The luminous sparkle in your Love's eyes"
"Let me give you the boundless miles of sea"
"Something so beautiful and worthy of she"
"A hilltop covered in blooming violets"
"Where felicity laughs without ever violence"
"The sun to radiate on her white placid skin"
"Secluding the darkness shining the brightest of dim"
"A gem, a stone, that glistening diamond of grace"
"Only she could wear it with such a face"
"Let me the key to the past to cleanse the stains"
"You'll die with her wearing the cleanest of names"
"Give her the snow of winter, the sun, leaves, and rain"
"So she'll have all seasons under her reign"
The sailor man then raised his hand in polite satisfaction
But proclaimed he needed not a life of faction and said
"The gift propositions are too much for I"
"But not enough in value as her longing eyes"
"Sell me the sea of blue, and I'll buy her an ocean"
"The blandiloquent shatter of waves screaming notion"
"But should you offer a hill of violets"
"I'd buy her a mountain of roses"
"To buy the sun would not match the radiance of her heart
"For I'd buy her the mystery of the moon and evening lark"
"You sell me a precious jewel, I'd decline it"
"For her eyes shimmer brighter than any diamond in any climate"
"Why propose to me the key to the rusty past?"
"When such an arcane yet promising future is yet coming fast?"
"Lestly, why give me the pleasures of a seasonal year"
"When she could have minutes,days,months, and years to hold me dear?"
"Your gifts are worthy of a firey god"
"Perched upon his noble steed grasping his burning rod"
"But they aren't of worth of the bluest of seas"
"The deepest of oceans"
"The cutest of hills"
"Nor the highest of mountains"
"No matter the light of a star"
"Or the promise of a moon"
"The most regal of gems"
"The key to change the unchangable"
"The wonders of seasons"
"OR days of the year"
"They'll never be more precious than the one I hold dear"
"Could you only sell me love"
"Or a laurel frocked dove"
"But my love is of above"
He bid farewell to the merchant as he sailed out to sea
Wearing a smile and bearing the thoughts of loving she.

especially with this style, I greatly appreciate the LOVE in here, since it has always been one of the mostly used topics of almost all poets and yet, you still made this one exceptional.
BRAVO -
