The Elements’ Eternal Dance

you keep me
up past midnight
grabbing at velvet
skipping stars

I am the dragon
forming from the mists
woven
through your secret dreams
in search
of passion's fire

can I believe
in the water
in my hand
flow of clear
the slip
the tender drip

I am the forest
the scent
of ancient mysteries
the moonlight
trickled
on the path
that led you
to this
deep sweet pool

I could be
ballet shoes
and you
could be music
in the air

I am the breeze
a comfortable disguise
storm’s simple leading edge
skipping
in lazy circles
belying the power
of the skies
lightly
filling the song bird’s
life
with gentle melodies

we could dance
fluid movements
I stand
on my toes
to reach you

I am the wind
tearing
at the trees
swirling in place
laughing
in paroxysms
of elemental passions
where earth
and wind
collide

So elemental...so beautiful

Here in the midst of my lonely abyss, a single joy I find...your presence in my mind. Unknown

This sounds like a happy dance....and a pairing of two of PIP's best! An excellent duet -- irresistable.

Good work, icebox! Good work, Slick one! You two make a good combo.

I was trying to highlight my favorite part... but I just kept collecting line after line, verse after verse. *S* This is a wonderful duet... two of my favorites produced a seamless collaboration! *S*

Beautiful!

I just love when my people harmonize!

and two of my favorite poets, too.

may I be greedy and clamour for more?
