[hometext] => This is the first romantic story poem I have written...
[bodytext] => At a Georgian bay window on Martingale street through a Whitby lace screen round an old window seat, coloured green flecked with blue, like the deep shining sea were the eyes of an angel that looked out at me. On her lips of soft promise, a smile seemed to play that enchanted my soul, like the dawn of a day, and upon the lapel of her crinoline gown was an amber and ivory cameo crown. My heart felt so full of expectant surprise as I noticed the beautiful smile in her eyes, she opened the door and she beckoned me in and we both didn't really know where to begin. For it felt as though this was a wonderful scene from a play we had starred in, where once we had been, then we realised it was the turn of the page and here we both were, once again centre stage. So I offered my arm, and we walked in the room and I smelled the sweet fragrance of lilac perfume, we turned to each other, and gently we smiled and instantly I was completely beguiled. On a large oval table that stood in the room was a jigsaw depicting a rose bush in bloom, while next to the bush were two lovers sat down and the girl wore an amber and ivory crown. But one piece was still to be put in its place the piece that was bearing the gentleman's face, on the table face down, so that no-one could see then she picked up the piece, and the picture was me. And all in that instant, the jigsaw revealed the picture was finished, our romance was sealed, from that long ago time when we shared our first sun to the gold autumn page when the jigsaw was done...
