PURITY

She glides down the edge of the waters. Her nude limbs moving with
deliberation and yet with a certain languidity of movement, a hint
of laziness. The body is taut with all the hauteur of royalty yet
the vision created is that of a rustic peasant in her moment of
unbidden joy. It is a princess caught in a moment of stolen
abandonment.

The gleaming limbs chained together seem to flow as she runs.
Arms, breasts, torso, thighs, feet all seem to fly and scatter and
yet this is so graceful, so sensuous, it creates a sense of
harmony. The eyes are ablaze with glowing embers of coal and the
soft mouth damp and alluring. A vision most hypnotising! He
watches from a distance totally captivated, transported beyond.

But suddenly, there is a break; a turn, a collision. The
magnificent head turns swiftly, and the wet curtain of spikes
crowning the head and covering her bare shoulders scatter and
sting. There is a gasp, and a soft moan escapes the astonished
lips as if someone had quietly placed a cold hand on her heated
body.

But just as soon the pain vanishes and the spikes that stung,
transform into soft damp tendrils as they touch her tender skin, 
caressing her face and body as if they draw their very life from
the contact. The mouth then smiles and there is flash of white
teeth. And he knows the vision is in danger again. The white, arm
lifts, lifts till the fingers almost wrench the tendrils from
their resting place. Watching transfixed he holds his breath and
just then, the moment breaks, destruction is halted as the sea
roars towards the shore swirling at her with such a force that all
is forgotten.

In a sweep of passion the waves tumble her into their arms and the
body crumbles and ceases to exist. It finds its resting place in
the watery bed and finally all is ONE- face, hair body spirit and
soul. What is left is the naked form of a woman in her moment of
harmony, peace, joy, abandon and PURITY.
