For Gabi Gabriella
I hope you like it. I can hardly do justice to such a picture.
Woman of God.
Still waters, pristine
A gondola in bronze dark
Waters of Venice
Sunset on eternity.
Her skin maps utopias of
Flawless purity
Her hair is delicious embellishment
wet slicked back alloys on
Piled wings of gold.
Her pose a tranquil goddess
Lips parted in mock submission
Frozen art calm tempestuous
A tremulous hint of
Derision
Suppressed pants
A half smile of evasion.
Fear naught.
Fear nothing.
But fear for lies inside
Your depth of devotion
If she raised downcast eyes
To expose stellar orbs
behind cavorting lashes
Your world would end
As worship
At her feet.
And thus
She sheds soft honeyed amber gaze
Strict Inviolable mercy
Earthbound
From fearless beacons of
Emerald violet.
Sweet citadel
Of peace
Passionately protected.
