To the Simple Girl

You don't always wear mascara
But there's something about your eyes
Your makeup doesn't scare us
Something simple is your surprise
You can't hide what God gave you
Under those shirt and pants
And though you didn't bother
There is still something about your hair
Your not afraid of working
The fixings of here and there
You never find me watching
But sometimes I do stare
With you I find the deepest love
I could ever have
Because your simply beautiful
Without the paint and all that jazz

Interesting write. Inner beauty shines. Thanks for your visit to my bribe poem. It's obviously done in jest, so no need for you to worry...

Ahh!! Such a romantic work for the one that you love..Thanks for stopping by..Your comments are valuable to me..I live where there the Canada Geese fly in their V formation over my home every fall and every spring..They are migratory and go north to raise their young in the spring..It is usually around March or so before they go but they know what they are doing..I guess they are going to take so extra layovers on the way..Sara

Happy valentines, from one simple look to another. How charming to be attracted to the natural look, then all the colors make-up can buy. My boss once told me, he found the simple girls more interesting, than the ones beautified for looks. hugs... LINDA
