a 1000 pounds or more

I need a 1000 pounds or more
so I can be the air-lion and roar
on my way to the unknown lands
be at the mistress of the sea commands

I need a 1000 pounds or more
need to work hard - not as heretofore
to sit in your garden at the table
and create with thee a pretty fable

I need a 1000 pounds or more
and the precious perfection will pour
down on my knees - into your heart
producing the sweetest of arts

I need a 1000 pounds or more
to start my longest quest not for:
the gold of the world, nor the precious stone,
but to find you miss, and don't let you feel alone
