Her hair was more than simply blond,
It had a xanthous hue.
Her eyes could only be described
As lucid aqua blue.
Her rare, exquisite beauty was
Entrancing to all men.
She’d take advantage of their love,
Then set them free again.
She’d break the heart of any man,
If given half a chance.
Beware this lass with xanthous hair.
Forsake her false romance.
