To My Beloved

You are as beautiful as the blue sky.
Your face, as soft as a flower’s petals.
Your voice is gentle as the butterfly.
Losing your love would sting like nettles.
Your hair, as bright and gleaming as star light.
Your body, as graceful as a gazelle.
Your lips are as a red ruby so bright.
Your eyes are like a deep life-giving well.
Your laughter is like a babbling brook.
Your hands and feet, so dainty and petite.
Your smile restores me with just one look.
Your breath is lovely and so very sweet.
Your love will sustain my every need.
This, my hearts outpouring, will you please heed?
