Mortal Beauty

(its not going in d right category tday.) Her hair glittered and shone like glinting strands of gold Or her hair jet black in a dark sheen of ebony Ah witness the Lord's creativity in great beauty variety Her eyes a shade of sparkling jade Or her hazel brown eyes like bronze sunset skies Her cheeks had a blush of the red of rubies Her arms shimmered as does diamond dust Her skin was radiant as mother 'O' pearl! Her neck and figure so sinuous and slender as the diamond back snake's The coy quiver of her lips like blossoming tulips Her nails one could fancy were pink sapphire Ah, she could be his heart's desire set his beating heart on fire But miss terrific may wait for heart throbs to marry and not just any Tom Dick and Harry! So even if he may be a lady killer Let him meet his match for she be a femme fatale!
