Rapture is, Your Presence, Divine!!! (A Quatern)

Rapture is, Your Presence, Divine,
Nothing Matches, Your Rhapsody.
Enchanted, is this Heart, of Mine,
Enamored, with Such Ecstasy.

No Greater Pleasure, I could find.
Rapture is, Your Presence, Divine.
I'm Exhilarated, by you, Left On, Cloud Nine
Every Part Of Me, Besotted, Stupefied.

You Leave Me, Breathless, Every Time,
Captured, by you, In Everyway.
Rapture is, Your Presence, Divine,
And by you, I'm, So Amazed.

With Wonder, You just, Drunken Me.
I'm Intoxicated, By Your Magic, Sublime,
Infatuated, Fancied, In A Frenzy.
Rapture is, Your Presence, Divine.
