Constellation In Memory of the Virgo Lady

With the appeal of a gorgeous nymph covered in white snow
The fairest and purest of the land that anyone had known
Soft and gentle sending signals of her kindness
Eyes like a sparkling pool of love curing the blindness
Her beauty took presence to the envious eye of the dragons
Her solitude made the townspeople flip over their wagons
Capturing the hearts of princes intrigued by her mystery
Serving was her passion, her duty her history
To her the ground was her temple
The ocean was her attire
The breeze was her nourishment
The wilder bees, 
her acquaintances.
One drop of poison would tarnish her inimitable virtues and qualities
Leaving her footprints imprinted in the hearts of many
