  Where shooting stars would be

  For she’s the fairest of all heaven…

  Her eyes glitter when touched by light

  Distant will notice even in the

   darkness of light

  Her beauty is like a nature’s mystery

 That no one can explain its enchanting

   beauty

  For she is the prettiest of all the flowers

  No wonder butterflies dance around

     her…’’
