As a lover, he was utterly sublime.

As a  lover, he was utterly sublime.

Yet he did it as  just a pastime.

He much preferred    daydreaming

Or financial scheming

Why,even rewriting my rhymes!

He was in a hurry to get out of bed

He said he’d change when we wed.

But he  had three more engagements

And  secret arrangements.

Thus was his fantasy fed.
