FIRST TRUE LOVE

[wildguy2006]

I ne’er was struck before that hour
With love so sudden so sweet
Her face it bloomed like a sweet flower
And stole my heart away complete

My face turned pale, a deadly pale
My legs refused to walk away
And when she looked what could I ail
My life all seemed turned to clay

And then my blood rushed to my face
And took my eyesight quite away
The trees and bushes round the place
Seemed midnight at noonday

I could not see a single thing
Words from my eyes did start
They spoke as chords do form the string
And blood burnt round my heart

Are flowers the winter’s choice
In loves bed always snow
She seems to hear my silent voice
Not love appeals to know

I never saw so sweet a face
As that I stood before
My heart has left its dwelling place
And can return no more

Great poem! I find it so hard to write poetry that rhymes and makes sense, you've done a good job here!
