She Blew In Like a Breeze

I'm working with rhyming; something I normally do not do. The first few lines came to me and the rest flowed. She is hopeful, but she is lonely and she just needs to accept and love her own surroundings. 

She blew in like a breeze
Slow at first, rustling the trees
Her thoughts give her away
She is hoping they will stay 
Loneliness is visible on her face
Confused, she asks “Where is this place?”
The others, glance at her 
Their silence and stares deter
Fear overtakes her mind
Wanting to leave but feeling confined
She closes her eyes and silences her thoughts
Take me away she thinks as she plots
Eyes open, beauty restored
No longer in that place where people ignore
Peaceful amongst nature
Taking in her creator

Susan, I enjoyed re-reading the poem several times! Nice contrast between a woman feeling lonely and confined around people; while she finds comfort and peace in the solitude of her natural world. Sanford

Confused, she asks, "Where is this place?" I imagine this is exactly what happens.
