Fiction Friday: [Kindling]

[Sometimes strange images fill your head until you turn them into words. Enjoy!]

I stumbled upon
a woman
floating
in a field.
Her long,
dark curls
stretched
toward
the tall grass
as the rest of her
defied gravity.

Sunlight splashed
her face,
masking
her identity
with its rays.
The hem of her dress
ruffled and danced
in time with the
swaying grass.

Hypnotized,
I stood
witness to
her waking
with a start.
The curls
spilling down
her back
as she sat
upright.

All the while
I stood
frozen.

She turned
toward me,
her face
still bathed
fully in light.
Its bright
tendrils  
reached
for me.
Each radiating
with love
and drawing me
closer
until I was
embraced
by her glow.
