The Return

He calls out she stops dead in her tracks He calls again She pauses, listens and turns Looks but can't see She continues her train He calls out once more. There is no mistaking she has heard. She turns South, East, West But she doesnt see him She becomes determined, keeps searching, frantically She stumbles, slips, and begins to fall Just when her back should have touched the floor, He stretches out His hand and picks her up, sets her on her feet. Her cheecks become full circles as she smiles in recognition. She tries to go closer but is prevented by a barrier. He is radiating. His garments are shimering. While she, her garments hang shabily around her like rags. She hesitates. He watches, waiting. At that moment, all is forgotten She runs to his embrace He lifts her up. Her garments undergo a transformation Royal purple and a crown of Gold to perfect it. He smiles at her, purity is her name. He stretches out His hand towards her, and takes her home.
