Telling The World What I See

 
Ma'am
You are absolutely gorgeous in a way that had to be intentional
I guess the Lord just felt like showing off when he got to you

One thousand ways to describe the Sun's rise
Many ways to tell of love as I look in your eyes

A thousand and one expressions
for the beauty of a rose
A hundred forms of poetry,
speech, song, and prose

Fifty different languages
Each as musical as the next

Tanka, Limerick, or Sonnet
about stroking your soft neck

Swahili, Urdo, or Pashto
in a lilting, singing song

Let Italian, English, or Hindi
tell how I miss you
when you are gone

In Haitian or Jamaican
I'll speak of my relief

Whether in Cajun
or Angolan Portuguese

I'll find words for
God's Masterpiece
