Ballet In The Sky

 

 

The whole air is dancing - ravenous thunder rumbles

Lighting curls, flashing like diamonds through sapphire skies

I'll not allow your image to spoil my view

With you, rain would cry it's droplets...

 as it mumbled whispers to my haunted heart

Oft' time's rolling clouds rumbled their voices in my soul

 

Now, I dance in scarlet flames that spark across the Heavens
          gliding thru turquoise skies with copious clouds

 that delicately clothe my body pirouetting gracefully  

to the harmonious rhythm of rolling thunder  

 

My flesh no longer aches for your barren touch

I shall not desire your hand on my

beautiful rain, drenched skin whetted now

with silken tears of love

My memory quickens...

I no longer remember your face or hunger your sterile love

I'll not dance to your chaotic rhythms

 

Nature baited me with her sweet breath~

Embraced me in her loving arms

singing her gentle rain of tears

You, baited me with your hook of selfish love

My heart now dances with another -one who bathes my soul in fertile rain

Feeding me with his hungry, selfless love 

with the gift of lillies for my heart

 

You fed me worms with your stingy heart of vacant love

But now...

I'm flitting among the skies -letting my arm swing high and wide

Feeling the wind blowing thru my hair, finding white fluffy clouds to ride
