With today's lovely poem, Enigma by Sheena Singh, I am taking a week sabbatical from Writing In A Woman's Voice posts. I'll be back with our colorful many-faceted voices September 18.

Enigma

by Sheena Singh

She was like

a blooming flower

on that colorful vase.
Swaying away

to all that glitters..

flashing smiles,
vibrant..

Radiant..

She was a bold
reflection of self-doubt,

provoked by silence

elusive as a dream.. 

as moon light crossed

her way..

She was an enigma,

seeking solitude
plain and raw,
as bland as the cloud
before an autumn rain.
