Lake Princess

Lake Princess

A Poem by Nisreen

A body of water turned to ice
Clouds of white descended to earth

On a dream crescendo
She appeared

Looking around to see all white
The heart has trembled

Being in love with space
Burdens of the body float free

Closing the lids of turmoil
The sun has set a path

A heaven to be
Taking simple steps to a toe

River smoked a halo
Surrounded by feathers of leaf

She twirled to a turn
Landing in a praise of words

The fish stood out of current
She handled the pivot 

Swaying on her back to fly
Away to her home

A whisper of warmth
Kept her in confessions

With one above 
If i die 

A line split in two

Set me free here

Thank you ...........
It sounds as if the ice is melting and the fish are about to spawn, all part of nature's ritual and in time with the watch of the creator!

Your word play is tremendous. I don't know how you can take words to form a sentence, then arrange them in an unorthodox way that is so appealing. And the ending? "set me free here?" Such a simple sentence but it resonates like waves crashing ashore. Your writing is VERY accomplished and stylized.
Great write, Nisreen! take care...dan

This reminds me of my days studying Greek Mythology and the Gods.

A Goddess born on wings, lands on Earth and admires its beauty. And is in awe of it.

She sounds so beautiful, whoever She is.

Just lovely writing.
