I Fell in Love With the Softness in Her Step

by Ariane Lucchini

I fell in love with the softness in her step
up on clouds she crept
and into the night she leaped 
far away on a nebula she started to sleep

her beauty melted with the stars
when she made her way to Mars
and as the sun awoke from its slumber 
her eyes filled with wonder

she fell down to Earth 
to rule over everyone's rebirth
the skin on her cheeks shone
as the world offered her a throne

everyone's heart she took
with one look 
the planet shook

I fell in love with the softness in her step
