Maybe the desert wind knows her name,

or has heard it

echoed in an ancient land.
Her beauty is golden and IS her right!


Long worshiped by the sun, and the ages,

SHE

outshines the popular - the commercial - the t.v. skinned

conception of

the "perfect" female.... with a simple gaze.
Her words burn into the skies and into my mind

as she holds her court of the dunes.
The lizard queen:

eyes bright, straight chin and nose of lighting, oh, such

classic beauty!
Every night now, I wonder:


can she be held

after sunset, or,

would her smile

simply burn my dreams into morning mirages?

I like this....it would look more appealing if your line spaces were more consistent...
(just a suggestion)

Greatly enjoyed bubbles. I like your style.
