She Wraps Herself In Strength
The adorn summer sky emanated a luminous of gold
as she works unyielding at the edge of the chasm,
till the middle of the night under the opulence
of the moon's brilliant dance as it glances
at her alone in the quiet silence; beauty to behold.
Small swath of field, calm sea; exult in its grace.
Her silken auburn hair in a simple knot
just a few strands wind-blown around her angelic face.
Her irresistible impetus to make vicarious suffering
as she fears of a thunderstorm may roll in.
Her strength carries her through,
she wasn't going to allow the weather's mockery to break her.
