Rapturous Roundness by Nicole Sara

on

And they danced and they bounced
wispy sparkles that flounced

all around they spun
old legends undone
arms flung in the gloom
contouring the doom
nocturnal whirl,
magical swirl

dream and desire,
scouring fire
angels that shine
damned and divine,
infamous deeds
soaking with creeds
the sylphs and the sprites
recasting old rites
in the forest oasis
green veils and dresses

rippling moon beam
through clouds that gleam
questions and shadows
all through the meadows
long sung lullabies
smiles and cries
the grass and dew beads
the sky’s splendid seeds
hands on their hips
galactic trips

over the river
seconds that quiver
moments of drought
stifling a shout
in the soul, the heart
the still mind’s art
merciless blizzard
stopped by a wizard
from rhythms in blue
through the air and you

both sweet and sour
a moment, an hour
eternal embrace
cast into space
wolf moon aglow
caressing the snow
December delight
quiet and bright
January lashes
the minute that dashes

journey through doubt
within and without…
circles that melt
infinity felt
frail and round
infinity found

archways keep spinning
end and beginning
