Surprise : Compliment Contest

A compliment I was sent
Was waiting in my soup mail
What a surprise from a gent
Made my day I must prevail

Your beauty is overwhelming
Hmm he even spelt it right
Hope the nerve endings in his teeth
Didn’t keep him awake at night

Didn’t think my Bio picture
Would have this dire effect
I would like to say “Thank You”
It was quite a compliment.
