For a lady I know poem by Countee Cullen

For a lady I know,

With grace in every step she goes,
Her beauty shines like a radiant sun,
Eclipsing all others, she's the one.

With elegance in every move,
She captivates all who behoove,
A vision of loveliness so rare,
With a heart so pure and fair.

Her eyes like diamonds, bright and clear,
Reflecting a soul so dear,
Her laughter like music to the ear,
Bringing joy and cheer.

She is a treasure, a gem so bright,
A guiding star in the darkest night,
In her presence, all troubles cease,
For she is a lady of true peace.

So here's to the lady I know,
Whose beauty and grace only grow,
May she always shine like the sun,
For she is truly second to none.
