Unbroken Spirit

She's an unbroken Spirit
A Woman with a Gypsy Soul
riding without the reins
A restless spirit
running through her veins
galloping like a Thoroughbred
The Wind Leaves No Shadow, is her name
a flicker of the flame
still lives in her
the embers still smolder
as the Phoenix rises from the ashes
for She was born in the Year of the Snake

The hard sun reflects her sad eyes
the color of the desert
but she hides it well
behind the red veil
and dances alone, barefoot,
to the drums of Arabian Spices
against the Turquoise Sky
in the Land of Enchantment
as her lonely footprints
are left in the sand

Her time is yet to come
when True Love will find her
and she is the Only one
carried across the hot desert sands
to an Oasis
of soothing, cool waters,
where He will let her drink
wash her burning feet
kiss her deep
let her weep
watch her sleep
under the Crescent Moon
and Million Stars
