Heart Arresting Beauty

Discretion tells me I should turn my eyes away,
but with mouth agape I cannot help but gaze 
upon the heart arresting beauty now before me.
Why does she not shy away or attempt to conceal
the ravishing bouquet of her all from my stare?
How could she not notice me just standing there?
Does she not see me or does she simply not care?

She's a vision sightless eyes would yearn to see,
a goddess beyond the scope of man's conception.
Her flowing sparkling auburn hair whispers 
eloquently to her beauty in the warm breeze
occasionally hiding one of a huge pair of 
opulent all to consuming brown eyes.
Her visually captivating voluptuous body
would anguish a master Renaissance artist
for no brush strokes or mixture of oils
could quite capture the essence of her design. 
Those perfectly shaped succulent milky white...

Oh!  Why does that accursed demon's tormenting ring   
always awaken me just before I get to the best part.

I was hoping to make men groan and women laugh with this one. I could have continued my description on down to love's oasis, but I do believe I would have needed a different ending. Thank You! Glad it gave you a laugh! Kim

Ha! Ha! Well I could have went beyond the best or the breast part, but if I had moved down to love's oasis I would have had to completely change the ending. Kim

Yes, it certainly has been a problem. Thank You Eileen I always appreciate your comments. I thought about calling this one dream girl or something like that, but I did not want to give away my cute ending.
