If She Could Talk



Ruthlessly she was stripped
and left naked and exposed.

She is older and stronger now.
Wise.

She holds stories and secrets in her belly and
deep within her soul,
not offering them to anyone.

Yawning, she stretches shakes and shimmies
in the cool breeze.
The moonlight enhances her every move.
I am in awe. I am strangely comforted.

To yield, shelter and protect,
she asks for little and gives so much.
