Bather
Bather in beauty at sibilant streams,
Fabulous sunlight in generous gleams,
Milky white skin under freefalling hair,
Lost in irreverent dreams.
Preening and setting her locks in array,
Glad of the boon of this bountiful day,
Weaving a braid to impress and amaze,
Setting her face on display.
Pulchritude borrowed from angels on high,
Bright as the limitless sapphire sky,
Here is a damsel of beauty and grace—
Dainty and comely and spry.
Watery loveliness whispering low,
Butterfly circles in orange aglow,
Shadows — as cool as the breath of the night,
Next to this heavenly flow.
Under the waterfall, next to the stone,
Silently thinking on futures unknown,
Yearning for kinship and love in good time,
Dandelion dreams softly blown…
