Grace

Grace,
she sang
as she danced
in slow circles
her voice of rich gold
Held the babe in her arms
kissed the wet blossom-lashes
and cheeks that glowed of plum and rose
With her song of murmured tunes she wove
a coat of stories that she wrapped around.

This is utterly awesome. I love the...style in which it was written, like early 1900's... feels like...can't really explain in words- but congrats and I love this.
