Pampinea the flourishing one with crimson blood
Opened on a golden day like a rose bud
A queens crown on her regal head
Regina gowns of Damask and silver thread
Champagne ringlets and golden curls
Green mysterious eyes and a dress with pearls
She’s like Botticelli’s Venus and his La Primavera dame
Though she’s foolish and vain
She Appears pure and candid white
But The sweetest taste of sin to all men’s sight
Frate Alberto has always longed for her feel
He prays to free him from sin, before every meal
Pampinea the flourishing one ,sinful but from above
Ended a fool like the other woman , but always was a first love

I really enjoyed the rhyming in this poem, which bounced along from flourishing to fool, "as all women do" if they continue to pursue the follies of youth, I seem to want to put in here.
This is full of wonderful details like the Regina gowns and champagne ringlets that give it a very Baroque or Italian Renaissance description, as does the comparing her to Botticelli's works of art. Thank you.
