Our Battered Verse
to state that you are a beauty is to state the obvious.
and to compare you to a flower by others or by us
would be an understatement in whole or in what.
even to liken you to the morning star in every part
would defiantly be saying so little about your life,
as would be to describe you as a dawn amidst strife
would be describing an underestimation of your bill.
even if we were to compare you to a priceless pearl
would be gauging you as someone so low-priced.
but since we fail to find the right words about you,
please, stunning one, accept our battered verse of you.
