Metaphorically Metaphysical Library Encounter
I journeyed to the library
Where there I metaphrase
I’d never met a phrase like her
She had me in a daze!
She was built like a poetic goddess
Her body of works displayed on her cover
I could tell by fondling her ample pages
That metaphrase was a well-read lover
I sensed with this beautiful metaphrase
It would soon turn metaphysical
If only I knew where to take my cue
I’d put a little English on her binding too!
Without much prompting or hesitation
Our intellectual intercourse began
Quietly there in the library floor
I proved to her I was her man
The scent of our lovemaking filled the air
Upon that library floor
There I left dear metaphrase
Begging me for more and more
This shaggy metaphysical tale
It has a happy ending
For metaphrase and I were wed
And in a few weeks you’ll be pleased to hear
…Another metaphor, is pending.
