A Photo Fit

There is a picture
I would love to make;
And the images
May seem all blurred unreal;
Could I conjure a shape,
Or personality pleasant?

But alas!
There are
Wildness of forms 
I could cluster and edge;
With the tenderness of flow
That would blend indeed.

And though,
The tussles of her hair
May deepen her charms.
I would 
Handle the locks  
With a loving touch.

And feel, 
For the crests
I would 
Want to etch.
But the mind goes deep,
With the shackles I strain.

Will someone help,
With a photo fit plain.
