Oh beautiful Mona, look at yourself
The world adores you, though nothing has been said
A view of your visage, a scent from your skin
The frock above your brow and my eyes mended

Will you ever speak to me, I am unworthy
As clear as moon beams to sunrise, I am
Compared to you, a wish is close enough
In a twinkle or blink you shine, Madame

May your youth claim eternity today
For summer will soon turn cold each morrow
And without you this solstice would be nothing
But another blue heart stained in sorrow

Oh beautiful Mona, you are so much
A marvel I, myself, could never touch
This is my entry to [link] Poetry Litmas: Sensing Winter Contest.
