Brave New Girl

And when she spoke,
sparks flew from her eyes
and the very meaning
of life ceased
making sense.

There were intense
mutterings amongst
the universal elders
causing the known 
worlds to shake,
planets did quake
and turn on their axis.

Long ancient dreams
were uncovered
and revisited.
Old maids returned
to young maidens,

all was forgiven,
peace waited quietly
in the wings and

everything old was
shattered,
making way for brave
new beginnings.
