And she was a girl
Of the mountain
And her feet were rivers
And she walked gently
Trusting, as the mountain

She had
Snow capped lips
And teeth stained with
Promises
Because she was the
Mountain and the stream
And the black necked swan
And they were her
And that was a
Promise

And she dreamed
Empty wishes and a
Hope to be free
Like the swan and the stream
and the mountain

And that was enough.
