You are...

You are strangely beautiful,

Like a pearl necklace

Waiting to be worn and appreciated



You are that pure morning dew

That sits calmly on a dainty violet

The crystalline droplet

That add richness to earth’s dryness



You are every man’s wish

The reason they all stop

To catch a second glimpse



You are a Tulip

As far as the eyes can see

The exquisite July-flower,

That put smiles on lover's face



You are unusual,

Like a shooting star

That drops elegantly into my view

At night time

Myriads of stars in the night skies

But you are what I call E PLURIBUS UNUM
