She tastes of chocolate and coffee,
Looks like a midsummers night
Smells like the most fragrant of flowers
Oh, what a sight
She holds her head up high
Her face always turned up to the sky
Inside her eyes are galaxies and rainbows
All swirled into one
Eyes the colour of chocolate, caramel, the warm sun.
She loves wearing long dresses and short skirts
Flower crowns are always pinned to her dark curls
Nails painted the same shade of sunset pink
She's loving and welcoming, inviting you to think
She is an intellectual, of course
Always pondering the meaning of life
Wondering about the origin of the skies
And when she talks about her passions,
Look at her eyes.
Watch how they light up with the radiance
Of a thousand stars
Look at her hands,
Watch as they take on a life of their own
Waving and gesturing, a graceful dancer
Look at her lips,
As they curve into an excited smile
Most of all, listen to her talk
Listen to her disjointed ideas
Watch the words flow out of her mouth,
Different coloured fragments,
Swirling with the wind.
