until he brushed her heart;
chalked her soul;
etched her mind;
drew her potential;
erased her blemishes...

had never seen
of a person not recognised:
clothed
named
made visible
with just his one word:
"Beautiful"

This was exquisite Kate, absolutely beautiful poetry!

A lover's paint brush truly is a magic wand.
The person of who you write sounds like they are seeing they were never the ugly duckling, only thought it, when everyone else saw the swan..
