[bodytext] => I could compare you to a flower,
But none are worthy of your beauty.
For describing you, I have not the power,
But as I love you, I consider it my duty.

Your eyes are a more gorgeous blue,
Than the clearest sky on the warmest day.
As an artist, I appreciate the hue,
Of these pools I could be lost in all day.

Your hair a golden brown,
Your lips, strawberry red.
If you were to let your hair down
You could turn any head.

The birds envy your voice,
Sweeter than any of their songs.
And if I were to have my choice,
That's all I would here the day long.

These things about you are beautiful,
That will always remain true.
But the thing I find the most wonderful,
Is that you love me, too.

I love you, Mary

I could compare you to a flower,
But none are worthy of your beauty.
For describing you, I have not the power,
But as I love you, I consider it my duty.

Your eyes are a more gorgeous blue,
Than the clearest sky on the warmest day.
As an artist, I appreciate the hue,
Of these pools I could be lost in all day.

Your hair a golden brown,
Your lips, strawberry red.
If you were to let your hair down
You could turn any head.

The birds envy your voice,
Sweeter than any of their songs.
And if I were to have my choice,
That's all I would here the day long.

These things about you are beautiful,
That will always remain true.
But the thing I find the most wonderful,
Is that you love me, too.

I love you, Mary
