Enigma
She sweeps the planet having been
A spirit, lightly slipping, seen
By none of mortal birth ‘tis true,
And yet, her shadow follows you.
Her gown of light, now swathed in thorns
She walks alone amongst the throngs;
Passing all and meeting none,
For her song is silent sung.
You turn forever, never seeing
What is the nature of her being;
Is she a shadow far from sight
That guides you in the deep of night?
Is she the venture never taken -
The love your heart has never shaken?
In your sleep she will awaken
Dreams of longing, so forsaken.
Her spirit pure was lowly sown
In simple fields of truth;
So, harken to the words she speaks,
Listen to the breath she breathes
Forever, wandering in the meads;
A lonely spirits song,
Revealing unto none.
Thus... forever moving on.
