Within Blue Eyes

She sings sweetly a song borne of love She is a child of God and the mother of doubt she'll push and shove then hide as she dances all about lost in the wane of soft moonlight A powerful beauty contained within blue eyes, a golden stare of burning fire raging on starry night She's an essence of what cannot be restrained a shadow flirting deep into the foggy mist She's been waiting for a long slow kiss to set her free not realizing she's already there

a very pretty poem. I love "she's an essence of what cannot be restrained." It's like she really bursts out of this work, so that not even this poem can contain her.

This writing reminds me a bit of a song recorded by the Who. Your wording is very descriptive and a delight to read.
