Your face is beautiful

Your face is beautiful beyond all other faces;

Beyond all music and all poetry

Your face is beautiful to me.

I am reminded always of sea beaches

That lately have been laved with storm

And have no more to show

Now to the searcher than one shell, like snow,

Fluted more deep than shallow-water shells--

Your face is beautiful beyond all other faces,

More to me now than dear remembered places,

More to me now than anything I know.
