Through Her Fingers

Her strong demeanor
Is present in her great stare
Strands of flowing hair
Flowing straight through her fingers
Playing in powerful wind

enchanting portrayal of her...i like the way you use 'floating' here twice; it lends more accent to the piece... impeccable kind of read, my friend; i feel like drifting in the wind!..:) huggs

I wonder what she is looking at, or should that be who? Has that flick of mystery that nibbles at my mind and I'd love to solve the mystery. A real nice one to enjoy Rusty! :)
