Nothing To Hide

A Natural Woman
By La Belle Rouge

i like to feel the wind
as it rushes through my hair
the warmth of sunlight
kissing my upturned face

moonlight is a tangible thing
if you believe in magic
you can touch it and
hold it in your open palms

rivers speak their own language
in their journey to the sea
birds sing operas more perfect
than those composed by italian masters

if you desire fake anything
you won’t like, don’t want me
my roots are a mysterious mixture
of aristocratic and primitive

i can be a lady, at appropriate times
no airs... just polite gentility
but i can be a volcano of raw desire
when my passion is commanded

i am as mystical as starshine
as spontaneous as your heartbeat
as unpretentious as a clear day
nothing to hide... i'm a natural woman
