WRITING
The wind gently rustled the
leaves in the trees around her.
She felt his strong arms envelop her as she stood gazing
lovingly into his eyes, deep blue pools of water.
She felt transfixed by his beauty, his simplicity, his
bright light.
His warmth was intoxicating, burning into her soul leaving a
trail of ash in its wake.
All she could see before her was his magnificence...colourful
shades of red, green, yellow and blue...leaving a lasting
impression on her.
She took a step forward trying to capture the innocence of
his smile like a butterfly in her hand.
His eye shed a tear falling gently onto her face, then
another and another.
She put her hand up to her cheek as if to shield herself
from his pain.
The breeze touched her lips kissing them with a gentleness
she wasn't accustomed to, it held her close like a lover
would.
She could feel his heart beating stronger as he caressed her
hair running his porcelain hand through each strand as if to
dye it with his brilliance.
As she stood she could feel herself tremble with each touch,
each kiss, and she gasped as his hand pulled her closer.
He spoke...a booming deep voice...asking her what she was
doing here, what did she want?
As she opened her mouth to answer him a deep kiss silenced
her.
She looked up into his beautiful eyes, their innocence
burning into hers.
A single tear gently fell onto her cheek as she answered,
'I'll never hurt you or take advantage of your bountiful
gifts....you can trust me'
