Woman

davidbrailsford

This night she bathed beneath the moon

In a lake enhanced by her beauty

And by her hypnotic  reflection.

 

An evening blessed with a cloudless sky 

Covering her body in a veil of dreams

With an aura of perfection. 

 

Admirers unbeknown to her were many 

Gathered around the waters edge

Entranced and eluding detection.

 

For them the temptation to reach for the dream 

Was tempered by their humility 

And by their fear of rejection.

 

This night beneath the gleaming stars

Mother nature shone proud

Upon her finest creation...

    A lovely piece of writing, could be interpreted in different ways, to me it is homage to the reason we are alive, water, the life of the planet. Enjoyed the read
