Proverbial Monoku

Hold her like a precious violin; she’ll bless you with her most dulcet song.


Aug. 22, 2018 for the Proverbial Monoku Contest of Carol Connell
Inspired by King James Bible Proverbs 4:8
Exalt her, and she shall promote thee: she shall bring thee to honour, when thou dost embrace her.
