Blush of Your Lips

Velvety
 Soft and lusciously sweet
   Roses dote on the blush of your lips

Exquisite
 Pearls of dew on a web 
  Spiders envy your silken tresses

Enchanting
 Are the trills of songbirds
  Larks revere your melodious voice

Mesmeric
 A flowing waterfall
  Love cascades within your wistful eyes

Thanks so much, Tom. I wrote the lines then found the painting. When that happens it makes me grateful again for the gift of a PM.
