Her Pictures Don't Do Her Justice Poem by Denis Martindale

Her pictures don't do her justice when she stands posing still.
For when she smiles, it's simply bliss because it's bound to thrill.
As if she likes those cameras close, such powers to display.
Her confidence she strongly shows, in every single way.
Her power pose? That's famous now, but don't let that fool you.
For while she overcomes somehow, her beauty still shines through.

Who knows what Fate's prepared for her, based on the foes she's faced?
This princess with a tiara, that star so firmly placed.
That golden lasso at her side, that's hers and hers alone.
Her Mother's gift to her with pride, so true love's all she's known.
She left her home, her paradise, where Amazons share peace,
To enter Man's World in disguise, where conflicts seldom cease.

Superman does what he must do, and yet she's quite the same!
Courageous, noble, and friendly, too, so worthy of her fame!
No wonder that she's wonderful, that's obvious to all.
She's simply quite adorable. She's quite a miracle.
Thank God, she's all she's meant to be! A super friend and pal!
So all in all, you must agree! In truth, she's quite a gal!
