Moment's Pause


Fiery tresses drape starlight skin;
Pale and pink blossoms accentuate;
Emerald eyes look not within;
Heaven’s smile doth from her radiate.

Time holds, in awe, its bated breath;  
She ponders love’s bright horizon;
About her shoulders contentment rests; 
Her song of love emblazon.

Eagerly loving, timidly concerned;
She looks towards future happiness;
Many things she hasn't learned;
Fates, pray you, her course to bless.
