My Lady Is Most Fair
XLVIII
How do I say my lady is most fair?
Is it her dreamy eyes and flowing hair?
Or what she wears that gives a fancy flair?
Or excellence that nothing can compare?
What makes her truly lovely is concealed
Her inner beauty's hidden from her eyes
But such a charm to others is revealed
Who is so blind that vainly she denies
She's beautiful in that she clearly sees
The best in others whilst like shadows gone
And yet its true although she disagrees
The grace she sees reflected is her own
It seems unfair that I am loved by such
Who looks as fair and I have not so much
