Flashback

A dame who's acquaintance I made,
She was someone who sparkled like jade

With eyes that shone like black diamonds,
Having lips shaped like Persian almonds

She was innocent and shy like a young fawn,
She emitted radiance reminiscent of dawn

With hands so slender and petite,
One look at her made you miss a heartbeat

Cautious as she was, she treaded carefully,
She spoke her thoughts, albeit a bit hesitantly 

On asking her name, she mentioned it was Mariana,
Hearing her voice for the first time, felt it hitting me like a supernova

Soft spoken she surely was,
Despite this, her analytical brain would seldom pause

She would stand with simplistic grace,
And then prance around at a decent pace. 

Time stood still when we spoke for the first time,
It set in my heart, a permanent jingle and a rhyme.
