ah, the sky laid bare

her ermine coat

gathered around her feet

 

her beauty—strong and simple

floods the river

until it overflows its banks

    I like the end… too much beauty can be disastrous, after all. But I like how the sun is implied rather than stated, very nice succinct image.

    Ah, to be flooded with beauty–must be beautiful.
