Her Hair

 

Her hair

fell, long entwined tresses

down the length of her back,

down past her knees.


Sunlight nested there,

in those long ivy trails;

small birds must surely have flown

garlands about her head?


But today it was patterns

of run-off water on the strand;

the way the past is preserved;

still beautiful, if stone.
