My Girl

I had a glimpse enough, of this damsel
To let an encounter with my inner heart,
And drown the self in abundant emotions.
A smile so cheerful yet so captivating
A voice that casts an enchanting spell.
A dimpled chin that adds essence to the face,
Those moles injecting tinges of radiance.
The youthful and brimming innocence
Stretched like the lush green vineyards.
All these and more creates an aura of captivity.
Here is a ‘creature’ yet so humane…that’s you.
I beg heavens…with undying hope
Those way too valuable hands,
Will be forever mine.
