A Beauty To Behold

Prince Ezeaka 1978 (Zaria)

Rhymed
Just like the Angels of old
The good book stories foretold
You stand out so bold
A beauty to Behold

Once i stood in the sea of tears
When my love was greeted with jeers
I wish i met u over the years
Your beauty will have brought me to cheers

Your smile made my heart dangle
Like silver coins that jingle jangle
In your eyes from every angle
I see sparkling silver spangles

Since my life is still so cold
I'll want you in my hold
Like a gold not to be sold
You're a beauty to Behold.
