White Peacock

They say I am a bird of paradise
My angelic white feathers do agree
I am as pure as the Himalayan snow
God must have bathed me in milk
My shining blue eyes are in stark contrast to my sparkling plumes
Crystal white, I am strikingly handsome 
I dance in the rain

The white crown on my regal head proves that I am majestic
My love says yes
I can sense her watching me from afar
She smiles and I shiver with love
She knows I will be hers, faithful for eternity
I dance in the rain

We are made to be together
No one else can come between us
Our pure love is forever
She comes closer
I can feel her intense eyes burning into mine
She knows I am beautiful
We dance in the rain.

Whether completely white or multicolored, peacocks are beautiful birds, and I don't blame them for being proud of it! Your personification and romantic side of it are very well presented, Jo. Regards // paul
