Gracile

Moving Gracefully
Like a snow white swan
On a glassy lake.
You came into my life

Like an angel
Descending from heaven
On pure white wings
You changed me forever

But your gracile elegance
Mesmerised me
And blinkered me
To your true nature

Because hidden from me
Beneath the surface
And belying the grace
You were no angel

Slim Pickings

If, like me, you weren't entirely sure what Gacile means, the answers 'attractively slender or thin'. A piece of trivia which may, or may not, help you interpret the poem.
