She is not beautiful
(No, she's not, she's really not)
She is not slim, or lithe
Nubile? No.

She is not biddable
(You'd better bet she's not)
She is not sweet, or yielding
Nor is she soft.

She is not brilliant
(Though sometimes she comes close)
She will never stun the world with her insight
Or her wit

She is...
Tired: often
Angry: sometimes
Selfish: occasionally
Rude and crude and loud: just once in a while

She is...
Demanding
Abrasive
Irritable
Harsh

But she is ... his
And he knows
(You'll never convince him otherwise)
Just how lucky he is.
