Dancing in the Dark |

Dancing in the Dark I often dance within the dark The singing of a playful lark Soft metaphor upon the floor A bare foot dance of mental awe I twirl within my memory cast Those shadows of an early past That touches me a gentle breeze And blushes me with pink of tease A ghost conducts a batons will Phantoms play a misty frill And ecstasy that falls like rain Sweeps upon my whimsy brain I am a captive of a dawn Of magic dew of early morn Of spirits lacing me a shawl A moment in a dreamer’s ball Those moment’s of my ecstasies All flowers of my fantasies |

Those shadows of an early past That touches me a gentle breeze And blushes me with pink of tease A ghost conducts a batons will Phantoms play a misty frill And ecstasy that falls like rain ~*~ Just what I needed today...a sy-song... |

At 4:40 a.m I find myself dancing to the rhythm of your poem and thinking how much I love the colors that color the sky at dawn and paint my slow awakenings. Is it fantasy to think how roses smile in the light and 4 o'clocks fold in the sun, but bloom all night? Klassy |

quote: This is exquisite, dear Seymour. Nothing like dancing, even in the dark or within our fantasies, to uplift our spirits. I really believe that human beings are meant to dance, our bodies and hearts wish to express grace ... and when we succeed in this we are able to truly love life. Thank you! Love and hugs.

I am a captive of a dawn Of magic dew of early morn Of spirits lacing me a shawl A moment in a dreamer’s ball Those moment’s of my ecstasies All flowers of my fantasies You know that I understand this all too well.... well done sir. |
