a harp playing
bewitching music
from an irish sea
from the mist of hibernia
entering a cold mystical island
a lonely teddy bear out in an ocean
dressed in her forty shades of green
her lush finery...

We know what happens when bearded eyes shut tight,

Not with melba toast;
Poor lentils of...

Does it mean something that meets your standards?
A standard measured by physical appearance
or from within towards one's heart and soul?
Perfect is just a label
