Ellipsis

Here she stands before me,
Eyes twinkling bright as flame,
Hair shimmering with purity,
A beauty with no other the same.
A smile that can melt the heart,
A laugh which causes men to weep,
Her gaze can entrap even the best,
As you stare into those eyes so deep.
A combination of three to spell your end,
Beauty, wisdom, and unmatchable wit,
No equal for her will ever be found,
Only for a king this trio is fit.
Love is a fickle thing,
Only she makes the idea shine,
Sought after by so many,
So lucky I am that she is mine.
