Sapphires are dim when faced with the blue luster of her eyes
Tapestries of nature wilt in the face of her purple locks
Smooth river rocks are rough when faced with her unblemished hooves
Crystal snow becomes mud in the face of her pearly fur
Gentle sway of lilies on a pond, cumbersome when faced with her delicate lips
But her smile, her smile illuminates the world beyond the sun’s powers

Flower petals envy the flutter of her brow
Rivers yearn for the sonorous melody of her voice
Clouds wonder how this heavenly creature fell to the lowly earth
The seasons pass, wishing to spend their lives with her

To caress the lily too perfect for nature
To feel her being surrounding them
To return to her, where they know they belong

That is the maiden whose beauty surpasses nature
That is the song of my heart
That is the glory
that only comes once in a lifetime
