Reverse Tanka : 7-7-5-7-5, three times
for the Sonnet-form, and a
7-syllable couplet
for the ending.
Elizabeth's "Stained Glass Hearts"
tells me much of what's in YOU :
I see loveliness
where some say, "She's just so plain ! "
(Like MONA LISA ! )
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
They say, " Her eyes are too wide ! " ;
They say, " Her nose is too long ! ".
I LOVE eyes like yours !
I LOVE inquisitive minds !
( They're PERFECTION ! ")
~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~
And then there's this one more thing ;
I've read your biography
and noticed this :
you love subtle, "inner things" !
( Like Elizabeth !! )

"Thou art so fair", Elizabeth was told by her Robert;
now that YOU have my definition of YOU, do not doubt it !!
