I admire those lips, arched like Cupid's bow,
delicate pink like roses grow
Smooth delicate petals light but robust, yearning for the warmth of my touch

I adore your skins brown-golden hue, smooth as caramel,
exotic yet homely somehow
As infused morning tea with its gentle scents,
A regular ritual with a power intense
a comforting blend from a faraway friend

A washed up shell basking on the sea-shore,
you're beautifully unique, that's for sure,
for I've never felt this way before
Eyes alive, glistening bright,
share tales more eloquently than your mouth might
Two brilliant diamonds say more than words know,
intricate facets reflect
What only unassuming beauty shows

Floppy ebony hair, declares a youth untamed,
but the grey wispy edges proves there's been change
