To a Beauty Unnamed



The final vestiges of nighttime’s shadows
like sinews, slip from My Lover’s face,
to reveal a visage of angelic perfection —
a Beauty so full of grace.

Less there are of maturity’s travels there —
for no travails have left a trace;
so much more there is of Youth and vigor there
in rosy circles of whispered lace.

Know that I am watching You —
if not envisioning from afar —
 how the light of dawn does fall on You,
how evening’s ne’er left a scar.

~

(U R, simply, BEAUTIFUL!)
