Oh Beauty Poem by Nero CaroZiv

Oh beauty, immortal,  eternal beauty! Sweetest sweet of all things and contemplations
How did I wasted my youth in sighs and frivolous endless meaningless be
And now I only crave to sit beside your feet reminiscing the pleasures bestowed on me  
You  knows I dare not look back into your mocking taunting evasions

How I yearned to speak, to kiss one of your beautiful maids;  I dare not fold
My arms about the neck of those beauties; scarcely dare to speak.
To any; and nothing seemed then to me so wild; so maddening and bold,
As with one kiss to touch their blessed smooth cheek.

In my fantasies and dreams  I did kiss your maids,  no control
Within my thrilling brain could keep insane and afloat
The subtle spirit filled with emotional nourishment I never mentioned never spoke,
The views and the sounds of beauties hath made my inner soul

Tremble,  shiver and quiver;  the zeal and rapture
Lovely maids of childhood for ever in mind did settle and  capture
The divine sound of a lute string, ere the note
Hath melted in the silence that it broke.                 

Who could have dreamed that beauty and youth pass like a dream?
In such horrible haste; these red lips and smooth cheeks girls, with all their blooming pride,
Flourishing in new wonders and in eternal surging tide,
The days of youth and bursts passed away in one high gleam,
                     
 
Too swift we and our laboring world are passing by:
Amid our agitated tattered souls, that waver and give place
Like the pale cold waters in their winter race,
Under the passing stars, foam of feather thin clouds in the sky,
                     
 
Before I leave this world I should bow down, in my dim abode:
I cherish and wonder at every creature and its beat,
Weary and kind I still linger on my seat;
Our world must end; for us it is the ebb of the road
