~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Although, even the fools among us know~

one can't simply reach into the night & touch a star

This seemingly basic fact has not deterred~

the wisest among us, from their attempts thus far...

Yet to this end I find within most of us~

left between their contrasting extremes to reside

An arrogance which allows us to presume~

the judgement of madman from genius in disguise...

And so unto each apart from the others~

comes this question which begs individual answer

If before those who deny hearing music~

could you reveal your own truth as a dancer...

Might, I have this dance...Sweet Prince?

To dance beneath the stars would be a magnificent feeling. You have written this with such great wonder and amazement. May I have the next dance. lol

Kerry, I love this. I could write loads about this wondrous thing called Dancing. It is like an art and the folks are the colors spinning across the canvas. Damn, this takes me to a show. Tie-Dye everywhere, kind folks....good smells wafting through the air. Ahhhh can I come and dance along. I'd love to shake my bones with the two of you. *wink*
Much peace and love,
Laura (your hippy sis)

A hand of text extends
fingers fit the palm
a precision of grace
unfurls
as wind and breeze
catch the breath
to sail to bright stars
in dark night...

Aw shucks...(a kid blushes, turns and kicks a can)
