The paradoxical refusal

Tallness and youthfulness to her credit,
Approachability being at ease,
Material wants on its extreme,
Her free of marital status,
And Living with a maid,
All put together couldn’t make her
Grant me and instead repelled my offer
Against all my credibility established,
Suggesting that she must have grown
Immune to the purrs of cats,
Who have been around her.
