Were I …

Were I a cave to own I would never hurt your head

nor let Brontosauri feast upon your fields

Rather

I would invent courtship merely to gain your love

and post T-Rexes, properly humble, to keep marauders at bay

Were I a knight errant I would not worship your honour

as others, who for your favour vainly joust

Rather

Grand paeans to your beauty would I pen

and remain near you, to ardently court your love
