How not to admire beauty, tell me how?
All admiration I see that is all
Allow eyes to wonder I can't allow
Fall in love by photo, how can I fall?
Gamine is she, impish charming gamine
I am entranced by images of her eye
Scene of reality never truly seen
Lie of fantasy dreams wherein I lie
Round face circular eyes framed golden round
Young captured frozen still forever young
Bound to my mind; her beauty is bound
Unsung my love song departed unsung
Lie of fantasy dreams wherein I lie
I am entranced by images of her eye

This Shadow Sonnet Form looks so hard to do. You have done it beautifully in this poem. I'm in awe really of your choice of words in admiring the beautiful woman she is in this picture. Best wishes in the contest.
Wishing You Many Blessings
