Your Watercolor Portrait

Upon elegant handmade paper,
a paintbrush was dipped into watercolors
to create your portrait.
A blend of compassion and charisma.
With tiny brushstrokes,
your facial details reflect your appearance,
as quite handsome and youthful.
Revealed in your eyes, that certain
gentle temperament mixed with grit,
along with your affectionate, flirtatious smile.
A time frozen still.
Spellbound by your ageless charm;
in the flaunting of brilliance, with grace,
as the memories float in watercolor hues.
