3. French Hen

While walking the middle path
between sky and land,
I met a lady who
would become a special friend.

Her cheeks are velvet,
her hands as warm as silk.
Her hair is bright & cloudy,
her voice is a watery brook.

Perhaps you think I lie or flatter,
but I would not stretch the truth.
She is all this and more —
mature, yet full of youth.
