Love Song Of Ambrosius Merlin Poem by John Bliven Morin

Come, inquisitive one, with me,
To my forbidding tower,
With all your whispered questions,
And youth yet in flower.

O, do not fear me, sweet one,
For I am but a man;
For all my magick powers,
Do not fear me, Niniane.

You wish to learn my secrets
And all my hidden lore;
To read my books and dusty scrolls,
That magis wrote before,

And in exchange you offer love,
Which I have never known;
Your tender kiss, your gentle touch,
And that soft moan.

And should you take my power
And leave me powerless
Still I give it willingly
For your caress.
