Forever More
She is of the earth
Solid as the stone
Gentle as the flower petal
She is the promise of innocence
The desire of the perverse
Perfection amongst the flawed
The sweet Nymph
Not longed for the world of man
His inspiration for romance with the divine
She is as eternal as the world is mysterious
Alive through the wiles of nature
She is now as she always was
A gift from the gods that torment the world
A light in the eyes of young madiens
A sacred creature of fables
D’ Lovely
Forever more
