lillies

The sun beats down

The music starts to play

And she starts to dance

As the lilies start to sway

The radiance of the sun is caught in her hair

Glistening appearance occupies the strands she wears

With each beat of her long black harp upon her back

The more the lilies began to stack

There aloof he came to meet her in the flowers

He saw her dancing in the lilies

After playing his violin

From across the mountains he came to see her

Dressed in blue and white

She stopped but for a moment

To see him standing before her

Earth shattering looks exchanged

Yet in the midst of his welcoming smile

Her hearted ached on the floral stage which they stood

He felt and urge to touch her face

That was pure and soft to his view

But then she quickly turned away

Continuing to dance in the lilies that hold her face away

The lilies were plucked away from his feet

As she moved on northward

Twirling to the song made

By the sun beating down upon her hair

Lilies start growing in place of grass roots which were once there

He took his violin in hand

Played a song or two

Waving his bow across the strings

To a melody he thought he knew

The notes they carried through the velvet petals

She looked, but kept on dancing

The lilies were becoming too thick around her

He could hardly make out her face

In the failure and disappointment

His hands fell at his side

His violin shattered in his hands

For a part of him had died

He watched her sail away on top

Of lilies carrying her high

Her face is now hidden behind

What is now her supply

He traveled back to the mountains

And she moved across the land

Still the lilies swayed

And still she danced

It was her music that played

As the sun beat down
