Fair Maiden



She dances, this fair Maiden dances
Barefoot in the garden of life
In a gown so beautiful
It collects the sun,
The captured sun radiates through her long brown hair
Her eyes, always focused bright and beautiful
Grabbing you, pulling you in
Her smile soft, gentle, warm, inviting
Oh to dance in those eyes, with that smile
When in her arms you will be safe, comforted, warm
And in her garden where she dances and waits
Is a world of beauty and color, only she can project
Flowers bloom on her command
And the sun never sleeps,
But rests it’s head on wind swept clouds
Smiling down on her, with a promise,
This beautiful Maiden will always have light on her angelic face, and always dance
For this dance of hers will awaken all that sleep
And her kiss,
Oh what a dream it is to taste her sweet kiss,
It will color this dark world
For in her kiss, she will pass the sunshine and color, that only this fair Maiden can possess
