 Nice, skilful drawing.  Have you thought of doing left-and-right
 reflections of her either side of a suitable text?

I had thought about a reflection but did not go any further with it.
The sonnet fits very well.

Played with it some more from your suggestions, this is how it turned

It just gets better :)

How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.        
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
