Description Colie blushes like she has cherry blossoms in her cheeks-
the first signs of spring,
the first blades of grass,
the first crocus sprouts,
the first tracks of north-migrating birds against soft snow.
Eternally, perpetually, perfectly warm; she is March blooming after an icy January.

Her Italianate, moon-buffed skin puts my own Dane-peach to shame, and her voice rises-
lyrical as bird song.
Pale hands, like two doves, punctuate her words,
putting shape to incorporeal meaning.
She is small in stature, but perfectly fitted to stay by my side.

She has the shape of a Renaissance maiden, all curlicues and curves,
scrolled ivory work draped with deep teak twists.
She has half-moon eyes-
green like river stones-
cat's eyes that turn up when she smiles wide and bright,
and freckles that splash across her nose and cheeks
like errant drops of paint flicked from a brush.

Light pink rose petals curve into a smile that could outshine the sun,
And she glows and glows.

Can I fave this a million times over? This is so beautiful! You have such a way with words! All the classical imagery is really great and hearkens back to those old love poems, but at the same time Colie's energetic personality shines through bringing new light to the old fashioned words. (I'm sorry, I went all literature nerd on you without meaning to oeL) I love it!
