A poem for a very dear friend of mine…

I’ve always thought of how best to describe you.
I realised I can in so many ways do.
Relax and enjoy the description.
I hope it gives you nothin’ but elation…

In terms of a book, you’re like a bestseller.
Full of suspense, romance, passion, in short, a thriller.
One that’ll put the readers in another realm.
So good it’s worth to be a Collector’s item…

In terms of food, you’re like an Italian cuisine.
One to give your taste buds a spin.
The ingredients used make it so nutritious.
You won’t mind its cost ’cause it’s so delicious…

In terms of birds, you’re like a peacock.
Pronouncin’ class in every step of its walk.
One look & you’ll know it’s gracious.
Beautiful enough to make other birds jealous…

In terms of cars, you’re like a vintage car.
Leadin’ new generation cars by far.
Its deft curves & qualities speak of its elegance.
Ride it, & you feel like you’re in a trance…

In terms of metals, you’re like gold.
Rare, exquisite, expensive but a sight to behold.
You hold it & you feel enthralled.
You own it & you feel unequalled…

In terms of fishes, you’re like the goldfish.
A fish tryin to rival it’ll definitely be foolish.
A body worthy of attraction.
A body worthy of attention…

It’s staggerin’ havin’ these sorta descriptions.
Guess it’s ’cause you’re nature’s 2nd best possession.
Wonderin’ what or who the 1st is?
It’s none other than Me, Miss…

    I don’t know that the gold fish is the best fish, but other than that I agree with the rest. And I like your show of confidence at the end! Only the best man for the best lady!!!
