My Beloved's Uniqueness
7 October 2026
‘My Beloved’s Uniqueness’ for Kira. I love you for your locks so luscious,
And the soft sensuality of your lips,
The honey-sweet tone of your voice,
The enticing curvature of your hips. I love you for your golden virtues,
Graceful movements like a minuet,
Gentle humour that so does amuse,
Such wisdom in your talk. And yet – ‘Twas the philosopher Duns Scotus
Said all things does haeccity possess.
So my love has her unique thisness,
‘Tis that I truly love all else no less.
