She sings
her sultry songs
under the knowing eyes
of the Moon
as starlight glistens
in the liquid quiet
of the evening sky.
She sighs,
echoing movement,
elegance dancing softly
across the pages
of her life.
There are moments
when she pauses in Wonder,
incredulous
at the lingering touch
of Infinity ~
she murmurs memories
in ink,
a subtle acknowledgement
of the power murmuring
within her heart
as the music
holds her near...
