Stephanie

Missing image

Her deep dark eyes are a boundless pools of profound thought,

silently damning away of all that makes her golden spirit swell,

lips of lightning able to strike when needed,

but a heart rich in the purest flow of love.

 

So far within she knows all of luna's midnight secrets

having visited where all minds go in the middle of the night

and felt the full moon magic wash over the blackness,

mixing its brew of visions and desires.

 

In the mirror she bravely faces

all the reality that a gaze can expose,

before her orbs that never veil the truth.

 

Iron masks her necessary composure,

strength of will radiates its defiant shield,

covering that delicate glass aura of quintessence

so easily shattered

because it is composed of the winds from dreams.

 

Which she lets blow across her stirring stanzas,

spilling all the metaphor messages in their golden elegance,

while facing life and always seeking sunshine,

ever prepared for another war of trials,

on the outside bearing the world with fangs when needed,

inner life a tender leaf only wanting to be watered

from cupid's ladle.

 

Morning reflection confessional

brings her to another soliloquy of questions

exhaling the residue of storms,

reaching for the wings in her poet's feathers

to fly away to realms that make sense.

    I love this description as my granddaughter mimics this. Boundless engery with lips of lightning to strike out when pressed. This is so true to life that the reader absorbs the gentle soul the creature holds, unafraid of conflict should need belong to her spirit. The clearly defined parameters stark and moving. Good luck with the contest.
