Learning to Dance

Singing silent songs,
Dancing unseen dances.
Miss a beat,
Change the rhythm.

Ears perk up,
Eyes stare;
Hush your songs,
Cover your steps,
...a bit more.

Living

She stood there,
The lone flower;
Her beauty blinding,
Blushing,
Everytime his rays
Touched her.

Sudden darkness,
Engulfed her.
She stretched,
Muscles strained,
Pushed through;
The darkness left behind.

Her sun was there,
Beckoning her.
She stretched some more,
And blushed again.
She looked behind,
At the darkness left.
“I’m still rooted
In you,” She said,
“This I won’t forget!”
But, to him, I’ll stretch…
Everytime.

Starlight (2)

The starlight singes,
Burns through my hand;
A glow, an ember fire,
Engulfs;

My hand reaches out,
Touches her face,
Pats her to sleep.

My hand reaches out,
Picks her,
Puts her on my shoulders;
Strong enough,
To carry her,
Another mile, with a smile.

Looking for,
A moonbeam next time…

Almost There

I reach out,
Touch the sky.
The sky moves,
Teases me.
Suddenly, I find
The sky beside me;
Feel the blue,
On my cheek.
My heart flutters,
Starts to sing.
The sky moves,
Just out of reach.
I reach out…
Once again,
This time,
With a song in my heart.

Blissful Sleep

This morning,
I looked at the sky:
My rain was here!
Opened my mouth,
Closed my eyes.
The sweet taste,
From each drop,
Filling me;
I smiled… I slept.
