Her
the hairs on her arms stand on end
and the leave-ridden trees begin to bend
her ankle-long dress presses neatly to her body
her eyes squint in the breeze
ever so pleasently that not so much
as a wrinkle is seen
everyone within eye reach is
aware of her presence
the skies turn from a bright blue
to a pale black
she walks endlessly forward
without even a glimpse back
the rain pelts her face as she
continues over the hill
