Loves Duty
Shanise you are so beautiful
Your sparkle lights the trees
The smiles you rain upon me
Bring me to my knees
When God in all his glory
Commissioned to find the perfect fem
Shanise rather the Eve
Would be the only choice for him
Such magic from a pound of clay
To make a thing of beauty
Of which man can lay his claim
And make loving her his duty
