* Portrait Of A Princess * Poem by Denis Martindale

Reflect upon her noble face,
Its smile shines like the sun,
Dazzling beauty and gentle grace,
Delighting everyone.
Her hair cascading gently down
In such a wondrous way,
She doesn't need to wear a crown
Her status to portray.
And here am I, in wonder still,
Resplendent smiles to see,
My very heart and mind to fill
And love eternally.
