sleeping fire
    motion            where there is none
catches the eye.

soft color, soft skin
soft curve of nose and cheek.
hidden energy,
dynamic even in stillness.

graceful lines, in angles of gentle abandon
careless beauty.
smooth dark red silk
cast across sure-fingered hands.

movement captured in pose,
    no tension
    complete relaxation
dreams of flame and waterfalls.

fire dancing in the heart of a gem
sun-warmed velvet
the blue of summer twilight,
      red of lifeblood.
curled and drowsing strength
passion.
