As chaste as unsunned snow

Belly Dancer

She displays her feminine wiles this modern-day Nefertiti, the bedazzled queen like a brilliant jewel.

A precision-cut gem tantalizing, beguiling a sensual narcotic, as chaste as unsunned snow.

She’s a shimmering beauty whose depth is not seen yet celebrates women — splendours of the ancient world, through dance and tells a story all her own.

Thank you Ravyne Hawke for this November 26th poetry prompt.
