’Tis not the fragrance of perfume
That makes you who you are,
But your shining face and glowing heart,
Which twinkle like a star—
’Tis not the fluttering eyelashes
That turn my heart your way,
But the depths of passion in those eyes
And love that they convey—
A dainty queen is not the fullness
Of femininity,
But she who loves her womanhood
And all that she can be!
~ Benjamin Graber
