Many an artist must think this way.

Have I captured her look, Have I captured her stare?

The way that the ribbon is tied in her hair

Should I paint in a detail should I add any more

should she look straight ahead or look to the floor

And the colours I choose, and the mix I combine.

have I captured her likeness? her beauty divine

She waits and she wonders to see, what I see

Will she argue her point or will she agree

Have I shown her sweet charm her grace her attraction

Is it there on my canvas what will be her reaction

And now my creation at last is complete

As I look upon it with a certain conceit

I am pleased I have shown what it is I perceive

I have done with my work what I set to achieve
