    In my mind, the hand of inspiration
    Flies upon the canvas of imagination
    And creates with crystal precision there
    A vision of Beauty beyond compare.

    Softly tumbling tresses spun
    From shining strands of summer sun
    That quietly cascade in rivulets of gold
    To splash upon awaiting shoulders.

    Eyes that have never seen before
    One who shall see them forevermore,
    Twin sapphire stars set against
    A flawless sky of satin skin.

    There, slips the faintest ghost of a smile
    From lips of a shape most beguiling.
    One, a crimson cupid's bow
    Crowns the crescent one below.
    Flushed and full, they meet as if
    Pushed into a gentle kiss.

    The flowing curve of a glowing cheek
    Frames a portrait of Beauty so unique,
    The highest place She shall always hold
    Inside the gallery of my soul.
    Let Her be known to all those who
    Look for Her in my nom de plume.

    I really like this. Very descriptive and beautiful. My favorite part was this:

    "Twin sapphire stars set against
    A flawless sky of satin skin."

    It's just lovely!!
