Venus of the East
She hails from where the sun rises
A child of northern town
No one thought that her prowess
Would one day bear the crown
The most beautiful creature
On the face of the earth
Beauty ever golden and pure
That melts a cold heart
All the goddesses rejoiced
Singing glorious praises
For Venus ruled from the east
With her charm and prowess
Sage from the rising sun
Lend to me your wisdom
So I could comprehend
Her with and her legend
Oh! Mighty Apollo
Lend to me your poetry
So I could exalt you
And honor her beauty
His might conquered the moon
Then the birds played the tune
Her charm conquered the universe
And all eyes praised the east
Oh! Great days of sixty nine
In the tower of reigns
The sun was shining so divine
On the fields of grains

But written earlier as part of my bound unpublished collection of poems entitled "Pandemicity", that I wrote from February to May 2021 in the height of the pandemic.
A tribute to the first miss universe of my country.
