1. He came to me as though he were a sweet basil
Swaying beneath the green mantle

2. So I imagined from his safety in full
The aroma of ambergris

3. But as I drew near his smiling lips
A ruby filled with the essence of jewels

4. I caressed him gently like a light breeze
So delicate it was as though he didn’t feel

5. Embracing on a bed of chastity
Avoiding the bright morning
