Class of 1775

What is more enticing than a renaissance man teaser
Christian mind in a chalice professed, novel'd upon holy quest?
When uncovered, wilting shadows follow the quizzical vale
Varnished priceless, louvred in the Mona Lisa tale.

What shall garnish the palate of a world obsessed,
With mythical blood-red blues of the spiritually depressed?
For highest honours, a la carte Michelin supreme,
A naturally sourced rosebud, nipped precise in an unvarnished scene.

Who, Will? - overshadow the world stage defining humanity,
Curtain raiser: incarnate, unfurled secrets of classical sanity.
Why a dramatist unsurpassed, Garrick'd in a graphite gift,
Global Eros is about to wheel a monumental shift.

Ascending beauty, there is only one immortal dove,
Air-borne commanding, always from above.
Breathtakingly alive, emblazoned upon rarefied air,
No match matchless mortals! Pedestal'd in the stratosphere.
Alone he soars the tantalizing Tamino,
Conducting Orpheus himself the prince and his piano.
Inkhorn, quill, and candlelight without a quiver,
Wolfgang’s’ pre-eminence did deliver,
Arising from natures temple, vouchsafed in name
