Verse: banquet

this is the first verse I've written with a built-in apology about the quality.

You know
this was
prepared
in haste
and yet
I hope
it's to
your taste

I know
it will
not sound
like much
but I
melt like
chocolate at
your touch

I know
I should
be more
discrete
but I
grow soft
as you
entreat

I know
that it
does me
no favors
to say
candidly
your kiss
I savor

I know
I tend
to exaggerate
how your
emerald eyes
do coruscate

But I
swear I
know no
pleasure
to compare
with your
cinnamon skin
which I
do deeply
treasure
