Eternity A moment never again to be A spirit inexplicably free A past so vague and yet explicit in design That this soul's very future it may dare divine Her eyes a piercing 'membrance of the lines From which her nature heralds, and defines Her posture, poise and every living breath As if that breathing shan't e'en halt for death From generations long lost to the ground The woman's bloodline once again is found Her body supple, yet ageing as a shore Battered by the waves of years before Youthful confidence a thing which she exudes While showing, too, a wisdom formed in feuds Experience and virginity combine She the product of when these two align Her head held high, her image etched in time Such lofty presence oft denotes a crime Yet purest innocence is all she knows Her essence, as a glowing aura flows Through time's cold passage, warmth she brings - a light A radiance how dazzling and how bright That moment chiselled in eternity That spirit granted life to a degree Exceeding time, death, and the heav'ns on high Though that same time doth swiftly pass it by
