A Poem For My Lady

The dawn has no beauty which compares to thee The sun has no glow as the brown eyes I see Melon has no taste as the honey from your lips Wine has not the power I find within your kiss And to compare you to a sunset is a mockery For nothing can compare to your inner beauty For what is lost in beauty is overwhelmingly won In a soft personality that compares to none Its richness is beyond what is valued and rare And its nourishment is more than even the air And to one like me its my most essential need To have my wanting heart love the likes of thee I have felt the sky rain which nourishes flowers And I have felt your love rain upon my heart Causing it to blossom beautifully every hour With the sweetest love songs of the meadow lark I have seen the beauty of crystal blue seas I have seen its waves as they kissed the beach And in their ferociousness have I now seen The way your priceless beauty did capture me And nothing in this life can compare to thee Nothing else in this world I can touch or see For I knew in my heart that nothing would be As lovely as the one who truly loves me.
