She is a midnight river below the stars,
Sweeps through the starving plains, a gale
Of silken love and fury

Now that I see the title of the picture, I guess my interpretation was a little off, but I hope you like it anyway.

Believe it or not, I like minimalist poetry as well as the more epic stuff.
This is a stunning piece right out of the Imagist tradition and every word counts.
It is evocative, precise and renders its subject perfectly.
10 out of 10 for a miniature masterpiece!
