Maggie

Margaret is a precious jewel
That comes from far and wide
She shines with such a brilliance
She cannot hope to hide.

People try to copy her
But no one gets it right
Because nothing can come close
To the iridescent sight

For Margaret is like no other
With colours set a whirl
Her name is Greek and Persian
A precious jewel, a pearl.
