Her face is but a lifetime's joy, <br />Her lips will the flowers employ. <br />Her eyes a melange of sky and sea, <br />Her smile is but a melodious plea. <br /> <br />Her words a tender propensity, <br />Her posture a model of accuracy, <br />Around her stride the moon revolves, <br />With the wave of her hand my mood evolves. <br /> <br />Her gentle touch in all affection, <br />Will spur me through my quest for perfection, <br />And all that my heart yearns to say, <br />She by her actions will portray. <br /> <br />Copyright © Christian Eliab Ratnam 2012 <br />ALL RIGHTS RESERVED<br /><br />Christian Eliab Ratnam<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/an-ideal-woman/
