As her appearance is rather curious and her countenance just fair
There are some things about her that aren’t exactly right
I’m not too sure what I should think since I don’t have great sight
Looking at her face so strong that has a chiseled jaw defined
Does make me think that something’s off but honestly I’m not refined
As I survey her rugged chin with stubble strewn all round about
Normally something like that would tend to really freak me out
Ogling at her thin coarse lips there’s something seeming quite amiss
Really though, how would I know, since I have never even been kissed
Maybe if I caressed her neck then she would find me suave and bad
Although that perpetual lump in her throat suggests that she is always sad
Now I’m not sure what this might mean for it seems to me to be so odd
In looking at her husky frame her shoulders appear to be quite broad
She tends to lack what women have a bosom of any varying degree
Really though due to my sight, the problem here could just be me
Every time that she is near and I have the chance to hear her speak
All that comes to mind to me is how she’s not the least bit meek
Laughs that stir from deep within bring rumbling bellows to be heard
Listening to her expressions of joy is in no way at all absurd
You could surmise there’s something weird because the way she tends to walk
And every time she comes and goes all others stop and can’t help gawk
Maybe I have got it wrong it’s happened to me once or twice
And if I’m wrong which may be so then please just heed this simple advice:
Never to trust what you think you see for very high may be the price

Author’s Note:
Now I can give this one last clue and hopefully you’ll figure it out
Of course you may already know, but there still may be some lingering doubt
Top to bottom you should read each letter that begins each line
Each word revealed will make it clear and thus complete this silly rhyme
