The Joy of Beauty (A takeoff of Keats)

"The Joy of Beauty"
(A takeoff of John Keats "A Thing of Beauty is a Joy Forever")

A Thing Of Beauty, Is A Joy and Pleasure.
Its Resplendence, Such Heaven; There’s Nothing Better.
No More Gratifying, Nor Rapturous Sight To See.
Beauty, Oh Beauty, There's Nothing,To Compare, To Thee.
On Earth, There's, No More Blissful Serenity.
You Bemuse, With Bewitchment, Drunken, So, With Fancy.
Your Essence, Just Enlivening, Makes, Each and Every Heart Leap.
Souls Relish, Midst Your Rapture, Dance & Frolic, With Glee.
Heavenly, You Are, To Behold.
By You, Beauty, I'm, irrevocably, Extolled!!!

Beauty, dear Beauty, such Splendor, You Impart, upon me.
Enchanted, I am, by your Witching, Wondrous, Rhapsody.
I'm Lost, Within, The Magic, Of You,
Wholeheartedly, Haunted, by your Heavenly Hue.
Awestruck, Amazed, every time, You Leave Me.
Beauty, oh Beauty, I'm Enraptured, by thee,
Spellbound, I am, To An Infinite Degree,
Enamored, with you, with the highest Affinity.
Intoxicated, Infatuated, Enthralled, In Ecstasy.
By Every Part, Of You, Left, In Wonderment.
Exhilarating, Your Very Sight.
By You, Beauty, I'm Left, In Delight...

Here's, to you Beauty, in all of your Resplendence,
To the Grandeur, of you, in all its abundance.
I'm Stupefied, Besotted, time, after time, after time, after time.
Invigorating, Inebriating, the Pleasure You Provide.
Nothing, quite like, Your Paradise, Sublime.
Your Charms, Alluring, Can't Be Denied.
Scintillating, Splendiferous is Your Utopia, Divine.
Fascination, Fancy, You Induce.
Your Effervescence, Simple Presence, Leaves Me, Seduced.
Nothing Matches, the Euphoria, Brought On, By You.
Enticing, Irresistible, Your Each and Every Part.
You Thrill, My Soul and Capture, My Heart.
Transfixed, I Am, By The Winsome Wiles, Of You,
Bedazzled, Beguiled, and Unabashedly, Wooed.
I'm Wowed, Up On A Cloud, Left, Uninhibitedly, Moved.
Your Ocean, Of Wonder, May I, Always, Fall, Into...
