Enigmatic Beauty
She knows she is spring
A pristine beauty, softer than breeze
With velvety tresses like midnight –
A dame with a guiding grace.
Those eyes hold the whole world;
A little kohl in them could entice
A million hearts;
She knows she could pull a thousand strings.
Moments bow before her;
She has no ceilings to shatter.
Sky is not the limit for her
Stormy skies don’t deter her.
Soaring on the birds of hope
She looks beyond the horizon;
Emotions can never shackle her
She follows the path of positive power.
Some alleys may be obscure
Thorny monsters could be scheming
To prick, to mentor, to intimidate.
Self-belief is her armor.
A whirlwind of serenity
She thrives on the winds of change.
Wilderness walks with her
Silent strength echoes in her dreams.
You can never understand this layered beauty
Even if you delve into her enigmatic eyes.

What an empowering, exquisite ode! Lines like ‘self-belief is her armor’ and ‘wilderness walks with her’ are so hauntingly beautiful and evocative. I completely agree with Author Jan Sikes about the magic of ‘Moments bow before her…’, and like Patricia Furstenberg highlighted, that quiet, fearless strength is something we all aspire to hold. Beautifully written, Balroop!
