Stormy Dawn

Stormy Dawn

She sang, dancing across the stormy dawn
 capturing dreams along her way
 she flew high filled with ...
promise. 
 
She streaked unblemished, a flower in bloom
 hidden in shadows unseen
 she touched many a heart
 that stormy dawn.

Beauty bright, lighting paths darkened
 she found the mighty wind
 hidden deep, as she danced across dreams
 untouched.

She flushed away doubts with wisdom
 powdered fears with fragrance
 from a new born existence found
 that stormy dawn.

Power filling each pore, she flew high
 making each drop a stream, a river
 an ocean, that stormy dawn before
 the rainbow appeared.

She streaked across the heavens
 mingling with the raindrops, and
thunder, than peace became her 
silent surrender that stormy
 dawn.
