How far to climb into the atmosphere,
To find a region where there would reside
A luminance of words to render clear
The likeness of her self that dwells inside.
How does her self show to my wondered eyes,
And how then do I with my words convey -
Vocabulary reaching to the skies -
The graces far beyond words to replay.
Off words, on viewing; anyone will find -
A glance shows the perfections dwelling there -
All qualities of person of a kind
As to elicit praise from everywhere.
No favorite of the qualities that I see;
They all share that perfection equally.
