Then there appeared a lady beautiful-
and from the far reaches of my heart;
never had I been so consumed.
I gazed upon the figure of the goddess,
as she left me alone, in my beautiful imaginings.
And I knew, that from far beyond the heavens,
she had been bestowed the gift of breathtaking splendor.
I could only marvel in fascination-
at this, the gods mystical fancy work;
no less marvelous than the moon or the stars.
I gazed transfixed in longing and wonder,
at this exquisite woman from afar-
An elegant statue of feminine perfection;
painted by the angels,in bronze.
