I see her sitting,
A broken bird on the chair
Rejected by a potential Master
And given to me for a play
My heart goes out to her
I feel her pain, her fear.
I know that in this game
She has been told not to say “No”.
I walk towards her, see her cringe.
Instinctively I want to heal.
To comfort her and help her know
That she can trust me – body and soul.
I put my arm around her, drawing her into me.
I speak softly and soothingly,
Assuring her of my purpose
That is not to do her harm.
But rather to introduce her
To the world of the physical senses
In a way she’s not felt before
Safe and sensual, so that she will beg for more.

Elba. I thank you for your comment. This was an important night for both of us. We have since become very good friends. This was indeed the beginning of a love affair with this lifestyle for both of us. It grew from such tender, loving, delicate and vulnerable beginnings, to a place where we are both able to soar with confidence and strength, high above, amongst the rocky crags, filled with passion and life, no longer afraid. This truly is a wonderful place to live.

Wonderful Work!
This is so beautiful m'Lady Astral in a way very soothing... the way you comfort her heart and eased her soul to then let lose the passion. I really loved the reading of this work. Thank you for the wonderful gift of your pen.

i like the broken bird imagery paints the fragility must be feeling in that situation, and the excitement she must have from her own fears turning to pleasure. sounds good!

This is so beautiful, it made my heart warm, and gave me hope in the human race in general, it's good to know that there are people out there like you that simply want to help others, and don't just want to hurt, and take.
brilliant piece -
True tanzanite, there is no more broken bird! You were a frightened little girl that night ... today you are a strong, full-on woman! I love watching you grow. You are a source of constant inspiration to me and my growth as a human being.
