Beguiling
And attractive
It may sound like a contradiction.
But I know it to be true.
That charismatic quietness
It can appear out of the blue.
Beguiling and attractive
And as quiet as fallen snow
A divinity of feeling
Remarkably on show.
Charming and fascinating
Strong in character too
Appealing and alluring
An answer to a clue.
Allured by magnetism
In captivating quietness
A charismatic movement
I am stilled into utter silence.
Lost by words of beauty
And divine inspiration
Not daring to move
Or change the magic potion.
Is it an enigma
Or sacred revelation
The charismatic quietness
I heard in silent ovation.
Or is it the wind singing
A quiet song up on high
Beyond the mist and clouds
In the quiet azure sky.
Or are they the last words
You whispered long ago.
In another lifetime
Too hushed for me to know.
