Jessie

Into a garden, Jessie wandered, wanting to get away. Finding the glorious site, leaving all her dismay, Warmed by the broad spectrum of light behind, Captured within nature’s beauty, she did find. Crisp clear pool, where reflections, are beheld true. At first, not believing her eyes, though it was a clue, Angelic wings, adorned her shoulders, in silent glory. Upon that glance, Jessie remembered, an old story. Of a maiden, that was forlorn, walking without will, Stumbling upon a true paradise, with waters so still, This gave her a glance, of her future, as it is foretold. That upon what she saw, would be gained, without gold. Amidst the flowers and greenery, that surrounded the space. Angel guide of her deliverance, together, they would travel in grace. Written by Cecil Hickman Sponsor ~ Constance La France ~ A Rambling Poet ~ ~ Contest Name Reflection
