The Woman With the Silver Veil

The woman with the silver veil
Hides the world's mystery in her eyes
Keeps in her gentle palms
Fragments from the creation of humanity
A necklace of precious stones
Surrounding her neck
As a wax statue
Melted in a sandy paradise
When dancing to the music of the spheres
Moving her hands
Like the cranes in a hallucinating flight
She seems to be a rose
Covered in chains
In her world, a world of silence
There's so much peace
And so much inner light
