Description (An English Journal Post)

The film has started.  The first scene is of a young woman.  She is tall, perhaps 5'10".  Her long dark hair falls over her shoulders in a cascade of natural curls.  Her deep imaginative dark eyes, intent on something in front of her.

Somewhere, a bird sings out a melody.

The lady leans back against the hillshide, her head reading on the soft grass, its green a deep constrast to her creamy white skin and her pale virgin dress.

Her gaze falls to her lap where a book lays open to a well-worn page.  It is a book of poetry, author unknown.

The girl closes her eye and resites out loud the poem from memory.

Then, the screen goed black.  The goddess is gone...
