Colours powdered,
pat on to perfection.

Flaws covered,
to non-existence.

Of greens on eyelids,
like leaves on olive trees.

Reds of cherry,
On lips of burning fiery.

Blushed cheeks,
Sakura against snow sheet.

Brown on brows,
Carved to bow.

Eyelashes flickered,
as the butterfly wings.

Calls to the lads,
a mate to win.

Make-up beautifies,
Pale and frail maiden.
Had our confidence heightened.

"Blushed cheeks,
Sakura against snow sheet."

Well I have to tell you this trick only works so long, trust me!  LOL, but enjoyed the illusion that it covers all at least for a little while, and really enjoyed your poem.
