74. Beauty

Long golden trusses
Touched by Athena’s fingers

Her aroma fills the air
A fragrance that always lingers

Cheeks as soft as rose petals
Newly plucked from their stems

And prevails upon heaven and earth
Surrounded by only good omens

Lips as full as ripened plums
Desiring to be licked and enjoyed

She holds her heart in confidence
Emotions not to be toyed
