A Lady's Desire

the wind in her hair
an arch in her back
she makes her way through a large crowd
confidence in her smile
humbleness in her eyes
she boldly speaks her opinion
but never will you see her head bowed
nor tears falling from her eyes
for she know God has it in control
she is human like the rest of us
but she never lets a circumstance get her down
she keeps moving
her strides are always in step 
and on time
she's dependable and independent
yeah she got her own
all she ever wanted 
was something she can't have
and that's love beyond understanding...

By impossibles, I mean, it is impossible for reality to be as this besides girl, what a boring life we would have if we were always on the "up" of life. Should we not have moments to truly appreciate, when we begin to again soar? :) smile, I can tell you are a very sweet, unique writer. Best wishes for inspiration and greatness to prevail upon your work. Love, Cindy

"but never will you see her head bowed nor tears falling from her eyes" "but she never lets a circumstance get her down she keeps moving her strides are always in step and on time" "yeah she got her own all she ever wanted was something she can't have and that's love beyond understanding..." I learned in a college course, words as and like, "always", "never" "must" are destructive. An effect- inadequacy. bad for the esteem. "should" or "most times"etc. healthy. I see impossibles.
