"Self Portrai"
My Eyes are Gentle, Victorious,
Intelligent, Sleepy and very weary
they are steel blue on white
parched white skin with freckled age spots
like chinese rice paper, immune to any scratching,
superior to any that would critize, losing
the petal lushness of its bloom, my lips
sculpted by god, are ever-pouting and parted
 and my cheekbones are like peaches without a tint of blush,
so they are snowy peaches, which angle like a snow covered
mountainside is the slop of my cheeks
my nose is aloof and perfect, even to me
a bit broken but only to enhance its straightness
there is really no flaw in it
but my eyes have shadows under them shadows deep
an magical like deep reflecting pools of water my eyes
have shores underneath that show my age and resemble
bruised rainbows.  The lashes suffice on their own.
this face is fair insofar that i want for no makeup
not even an eyeliner this face is fair and my hair
is a a wild trammel tamed by God Himself into perfect
strands of black crisp soft strans,  it goes down to
my belly and makes a shawl-like draping for me
so that i look elegant even when naked.  The body
is equally profound, imperfect and robustly fullness
like ripe melons my breasts hung gently in hammocks
my belly some soft pillow protruding excessively for my
 husband to press against his own skinny stomach.
my body is is chubby an petite, my waist is very frail, my hips
are very wide-i have an hourglass figure with muscular legs.
MY Skin is white as marble or milk or an easter lily with tiny freckles.
In JEsus' Name,
Amen.
