Swirling

You danced around a darkness

Value dripped as a jewel

Lighting a bauble

Kicked into a fire
Sparkling blazing

Into a darkening night

Small words muttered

hasty retreats

yet you sat there as if the world could end and you dance on the ethos

for no-one could

hold you

yet you dance holding blackness, wearing it as a tribute to dance

Your words to me

Find me

on the ethos

Sunshine and JL

Thanks for your very kind words.

Lightly has been an under-current for years and is now at sixteen poems with two poems to find the originals of.

The only problem is that they are ideas and most are in need of work, but thanks, once again.

Dave

no one wants to be in the dark yet at times it brings lightness to ones eyes  in colors lately red swirls like  a hazy fog forming shapes of something else dancing in the darkness of the room    

interesting read

Marsha, Eric and Froggy

Many thanks for your words.

Swirling moved on Nothing and then moved Red or Storm as the relationship ended but it had ended before the storm, it just needed two people to grow up, or maybe just one to learn he had lost.

Lightly seems to have taken on a life of it's own.

thanks once again

Dave
