Poem
There in a clearing enclosed by the foliage
Leading to a tide pool where the river ends
Barefoot, she stands as if waiting for him
Light heavily soiled gown and dark skinned

Her backward glance boost his resolve
Trailing behind he followed as she moved
With an outstretched arm he moved closer
Her eyes returning his quizzical stare

Her gown was soiled as was her legs and arms
Bruises and cuts revealed a woman so harmed
Her eyes betrayed nothing, not hurt, nor a cry
Signs of sufferings he wanted to know why

She turned and walked away into the water
Engulfing her knees, hips, torso and shoulders
As she disappeared leaving a ripple to the surface
He waited and waited but she did not surfaced

Suddenly a hand take grasps of his seemingly pull
Feared a trap but calmed as she arose from the pool
It was a different woman that stood before him
Her bruises and cuts now healed a radiant face so clean

Beaming eyes, a wide smile framed by cascading hair
The cinnamon hue of her nude figure glowing in the air
He would have taken her in another place and time
But this is not the place, nor was it the time

As she withdrew from the water came a solitary form
Faceless and androgynous figure as the clouds begin to storm
Until it dissipated and silt began to burble up from the bottom
In the middle taking up a myriad of human forms

Featureless except the faces with eyes full of scorn
Self-pity, jealousy and hate, mouths agape with emotions
Struggling, grasping for air, the figure sank below
Carried away by the current as the river restored its flow

He turned to see her reaction but she was no longer there
Held aloft by wings unseen, he found her hovering in the air
Alighting beside him, their eyes locked with tenderness
Leaning forward she kissed his lips with gentleness

With that she spiraled along the wind and fly
Where she left a brilliant point of light in the sky
Her presence left an indelible mark
He knows she will be back…she will comeback!
