She Is Magical

Delicately Strong

She Is Magical

she's like the dew on the roses

casting warm shadows on the ground

porcelain faces with up turned noses

always tried to run her down

she had a smile, could tame a wild beast

though she held that power back

a beautiful prize, counted as least

baby blue eyes, deep curls of black

she grew up wild, without a teacher

you'd never see her beg or cry

hidden away, no one could reach her

kept locked away, from prying eyes

the key to her heart, has not yet been forged

no-one has seen, what she hides away

she keeps her heart and her feelings submerged

hair tucked into her favorite, raspberry beret

a breathtaking girl, with eyes of wonder

heart like a hundred butterflies

the unbridled spirit, just waiting to wander

no limits or reasons, not to take flight

the clouds in the sky, pale to her shimmer

they part the way, to let her pass by

not a single star, can match her glimmer

she holds the heart of the moon in the sky

nature poetry

    “ hidden away, no one could reach her kept locked away, from prying eyes the key to her heart, has not yet been forged” - I love this. Wonderful piece.

    Lamar's comment mirrors my thoughts. It's the unbridled spirit in this that makes it so awesome. Well done, Kelli!

    I love the care free attitude of this one. Just makes you slightly jealous of how happy she is with herself. Well done!

  • This is nice ❤️💯👍😉💥📝
