Love Sonnet 11 Should Olympus Be, By Chance, Where I Am

Should Olympus be, by chance, where I am,
Would I tire seeing how the Graces dance?
Ambrosia, nectar, will I have for jam,
And Apollo's lyre might have me in trance;
Could I scour the fields for a maiden fair?
And drive chariots to snatch a girl?
Or guise myself as swan for sly affair?
Or carve me statue, like a lovelorn churl?
Or might I sail, consult an oracle,
Or go on quest to meet a lovely lass?
But when you came, so sweet a spectacle,
I find no need to trod in gods' morass;
........My love is on a path no god can thwart,
........Cupid emptied his quiver at my heart.
