Fountain,
coolest fountain,
Cool
fountain of love,
Where
all the sweet birds come
For
comforting-but one,
A
widow turtledove,
Sadly
sorrowing,
At
once the nightingale,
That
wicked bird, came by,
And
spoke these honied words:
"My
lady, if you will,
I
shall be your slave."
"You
are my enemy:
Begone,
you are not true!"
Green
boughs no longer rest me,
Nor
any budding grove.
Clear
springs, where there are such,
Turn
muddy at my touch.
I
want no spouse to love
Nor
any children either.
I
forego that pleasure and their comfort too.
No,
leave me; you are false
And
wicked-vile, untrue!
I'll
never be your mistress!
I'll
never marry you!

As
spring did pass into summer’s full bloom
To
stand with arms outstretched in seasons all
As
the seasons knit like the weaving loom
Through
the cold of winter, strong through to fall
Its
strength and character for eons stand
The
unkindest cut that will ever be
To
not love and support this tree so grand
And
not to kindly prune the fruiting tree.
The
strength of sweeping boughs as arms held wide
My
heart grows secure within those limbs strong
As
arms strong, my dreams to be held inside
Standing
folded in your boughs is not wrong

As
a strong longing to be my fruit tree
I
beg of nature that you fruit with me

5.) Assonance because of the vowel sound "o" & "e" is being repeated. Slant Rhyme because of tree and me.
