Enigma

So much more
than the sum of her parts

She stands on her toes
with a determination and control
that is fierce
arms raised in uncanny grace

In balance with
a freedom of spirit
The envy of most
without bitterness witnessed

Where did she come from
How can she possess
such steely wisdom
tempered by gentle heart

She is mighty
Belonging to herself
Unconscious of her
importance
Captivating without
pretentiousness

Glorious being
This I see
This is she
