I. Pearl
She walks before the morning wakes,
A breath between the night and day,
Her footsteps soft as falling flakes,
That brush the dark and drift away.
She speaks in hush, not voice nor cry—
The stars align when she is still,
A lullaby too pure to die.
II. Ochre
She warms the walls with wordless grace,
And stirs the silence into song,
The golden hush that fills a space
Where all the weary hours belong.
She holds the flame without a name,
And burns so gently none can see
The fire feeding from her frame.
III. Indigo
She dreams while wide awake with care,
Each thought a tide she hides within,
A sea of questions, hushed despair,
A deeper world beneath her skin.
She charts no course, yet knows the stars,
And folds the night in quiet lines
That heal the heart with unseen scars.
IV. Verdigris
She grows where broken things reside,
A moss that climbs forgotten stone.
In shadows deep, she does not hide—
She learns to lift what’s left alone.
The stains of love are green and wide,
And every bruise becomes a vine
That holds the world with rooted pride.
V. Crimson
She bleeds in ways we never see,
With every breath, a war is won.
Her rage is tamed in melody,
A song she hums when day is done.
The red beneath her tempered skin
Remains unclaimed by praise or fame—
A battle she must hold within.
VI. Saffron
She is the prayer that goes unheard,
A vow unspoken, yet fulfilled.
Her every motion sings a word
That leaves the hungers gently stilled.
She gives and gives, yet never fades,
Becoming light that others wear—
The sun wrapped soft in silent shades.
VII. Ash
She fades like breath on winter glass,
Yet lingers long beyond her stay.
Her echo moves through years that pass,
A dusk that doesn’t slip away.
And in the quiet, she remains—
A memory, or more, a flame
That kindles life through unseen veins.
*****************************************
Let this be read, or passed unknown,
A feather on a wandering stream.
Yet may it find her, not alone—
The one who lived in every dream.
For though she walks a path unseen,
Her colours paint the world we touch,
In hues of love, profound and clean.
