Her name

Her name

A Poem by 外人 (Gaijin)
"

hope you like it :)

"
Her name shines in my mind
Like a message in the sky,
Recalling the plenitude
Of her sweet, joyful self.

Letter by letter, her name
Dances in the finest manner,
Displaying the best combination
Our alphabet can produce.

Phoneme by phoneme, her name,
The greatest sound creates
And easily upstages and shames
The work of refined orchestras.

Her name I have in kind affection
Richer than gold, fairer than art,
I esteem for to its lovely call
She gently replies.

Just something I came up with. Actually, it's not dedicated to anyone in particular, it's more related to the feeling I get when I'm in love. This is how I usually feel about the name of the girls I fall in love with :)

Very beautifully written. The passion is very well expressed and easily felt. The emphasis on the emotions that come with love is relatable. Nicely penned.
