I will dance the room around
turn my toes on dusty wood
skinny my hips in closet cloth
to beguile awhile in silken should

The minutes have cheated my day long
torn to pieces afternoon's ebb
and Friday night is turning on
a light that's made for dance instead

I'll find a hand that knows the way
With a soft touch made of maps
that breathes my hair across the glass
and knows the secret of my lack

Bright as air 'round summer stars
on sky still holding dusk in pink
the telescope will find my name
written with Friday's dancing ink

Martie, oh so light and sweet.."with rings on her fingers and bells on her toes, she shall have music wherever she goes." That is the way I think of you and your lighter than air poetry. Chris

Life is not measured by breaths you take, but by moments that take your breath away.
