D, For Delilah

A, b, c, d is where, I stop
For, "Delilah", a mistress in the ,"(Bible)"
A Hebrew word meaning , "(delicate)"

A seductive name
A treacherous woman

Some find her, delightful
Some look at her, dirty
Some seem to say
She's, delicious

I find her to be, demanding
Sometimes harsh
She, can even be pleasing
Magnificent, to have around

Dreamy, just like a mermaid
Very temptress, her scent so seductive
As, she inquires so much
Oh, yes

Delilah, a name so unclean
In so many eyes
All the way into
Hebrew times

But, yet
So, delightful, delicious and dreamy
To have around
After so many 
Many years
