Hessonite

She had eyes that sparkled,
but she never really knew
how the shine came a long way
from a deeper, warmer blue

In her heart, she held a rhythm
that fueled her soul
with love that waited patiently
for a symphony to unfold

Her feet touched the soil
of a very many lives
she held all their memories
of courage and of strife

yet it felt as if her own earth
remained still without a seed
no colors caressed by the wind
no naked wooden need

Then the birth of an awareness
of her skin, her eyes, her hands
and here was the end of all
abysmal, barren sands.

The melody was found
in drops of soft hessonite,
that shone with eternal truth
of her own spirit bright

In a swirl of struggle and revelation
she found her answers and keys
to the doors imprisoning the warmth
of all her past stories
