I've seen beauty
All around me,
All of God's creations
Beneath
And above me,
Every day's sunrise
An unwrapping of these gifts,
Every day's sunset
A sweet dessert of life,
But all this could not be
More appreciated;
Than when he led me to you,
Seemingly no greater
Example of his feats,
Detailed perfection,
A jeweled box
Most exquisitely engraved,
But unlike inanimate baubles,
That could be contained within,
No diamonds could compare
To the sparkle of your eyes,
Nor rubies outshine the red of your lips,
Not one exotic gem could ever be cut
To your likeness,
Making you the rarest
Most precious treasure of all...
