Perfect Beauty
No embellishment or adornment
can do justice to your perfection of form
and inherent , innate beauty.
What are baubles beside your perfect ear?
Your slender neck
would put Nefertiti's nefer beads to shame.
Diamond studded nose rings or wristlets
touching your smooth satiny skin
would be mere eyesores
bereft of substance
or worth.
You are perfect,
my love,
my heart,
my pretty
little one.
We'll reserve
the trinkets
for when
you lose
your innocence.
