   You wear beauty like a spirit of grace!
   I think you will be in the dreams of my heart
   forever, never has my heart beat so fast as
   now that I have seen your face. You remind me
   of a poem I once read as a boy. I never thought
   I would seen such a true embodyment of those words by George Gordon.

   “SHE Walks in Beauty”

   SHE walks in beauty, like the night  
     Of cloudless climes and starry skies;  
   And all that ‘s best of dark and bright  
     Meet in her aspect and her eyes:  
   Thus mellow’d to that tender light          
     Which heaven to gaudy day denies.  
   One shade the more, one ray the less,  
     Had half impair’d the nameless grace  
   Which waves in every raven tress,  
     Or softly lightens o’er her face;   
   Where thoughts serenely sweet express  
     How pure, how dear their dwelling-place.  
    
   And on that cheek, and o’er that brow,  
     So soft, so calm, yet eloquent,  
   The smiles that win, the tints that glow,   
     But tell of days in goodness spent,  
   A mind at peace with all below,  
     A heart whose love is innocent!
