She Is This


It has come to pass that on a crisp and clear night
I cannot say that I think on her little,
I think of a woman and of her light.
I cannot say that I have ever thought of her more
She is that which lights the darkness of the soul
And guides this weary traveler to the innkeepers' door.

Have ever you been the wiser?
To have known a fairy
Or better yet a sprite
For she is this and more

Have ever you seen that which eludes age?
That which defies all wisdom?
Or even seen that which others' cannot see
For she is this and more

Felt your heart almost burst with laughter
Seen the world through tear filled eyes
Been to the top of a majestic mountain
Gasping for air, your whole body aching for some relief
For she is this and more

Sat in the sunlight, warmed throughout
Smelled the perfume of a summers' day
Heard a voice in the winter wind
And seen an image in a cloud above
For she is this and more

She is that which starts each day anew
That which calms my fears with only a touch
Lights the room with such intensity that cannot be seen
And the one that I love
She is this and more to me
