She

Mysterious like the mist of the mountains,
innocent as a drop of dew,
beautiful like the sunrise in the plains
when the day is new.

Refreshing like the summer rain,
pleasant as the scented breeze,
calm as the flowing river
that meanders 'twixt the trees.

Untouchable like the colors of the rainbow,
unattainable like the moon in the sky,
unforgettable like sweet memories
of times gone by.
