lips of the queen

A smile on a cool steel breeze,

Forever in the eyes of the queen.

Her slow silver tongue and her lips move together

Like children singing in Spring.

My toes dip testing her water;

The strength of her current ever reaching.

Her tide is a swelling melody,

And I lay crashed on her beaches.

If every word was beautiful,

Then every one of her.

Her soft tender skin, rose petals divine,

Her eyes unrelenting pierce mine.

Beautiful, Xavier. You've captured a wonderful image of this woman....I couldn't help but imagine "Maleficent" in the new movie. You are such a great writer. Nice job!

A lovely piece, very sensual and mysterious and romantic. I stumble on the first two lines of the last stanza, but perhaps I am just being obtuse.
If every word was beautiful
then every one of her

What am I missing?

This is what I meant:

If very word was beautiful, then every word was about her

[Lyn Anderson]

If every word was beautiful
then all would be of her?
