It is my understanding that in some parts of the blogosphere it is Haiku Wednesday. Today's theme is dance. As I have nothing else planned..... here is a modest effort.
Sun invited me
To dance in the shadows of
Crystal palaces
Moon invited me
To dance in the twilight of
Ancient cathedrals
Stars invited me
To dance past the threshold of
Time—infinite waltz
You invited me
To dance in hand-me-down-clothes
Alone in the dark
I said to the sun
The moon and the stars, thank you
My dance card is full
This is gorgeous. Truly.
ReplyDeleteJim, these are really beautiful. I love the way you told a story and despite being offered the universe the subject chose to dance with the one that brought him happiness.
