My Aphrodite

Aphrodite of my eye
With hands of cotton I carve you
Wink of my eye I sculpt you
Crystallized in wonders I caress you

Morning star that smiles
Spirit of you over me wiles
Scents of you do not dry
You're the Aphrodite of my eye

Ice of beauty I mold you
Under the sun I cover you
Frozen image casts shadows of you
Shadows that captured my heart, my soul flies with you

Under the moonlight you are with me
Inside a glacial dome you hypnotize me
Your hands and feet that stiffen me
My heart you hold that freezes me

Your image I praise, splendid in grace
Your face I can't erase, your body of embrace

What more can I ask for?
It's only you I long for
Crystalline solid you'll stay as my Aphrodite
Forever in an ice palace you'll stay whole and strong... 
  Love of my sight!
