Dance!
dance with your eyes wide open
your fingertips sizzle
on the embers of the air
Dance-
dance-
dance with your heart ablaze
to the turmoils of the world
and the wonders, dance -
with your belly an ocean
drinking in all the light and all the dark
and all the waters in between,
dance-
with your feet aloft
above the planet, afloat on
cushions of rhythmic air, dance-
with your body in ecstatic motion
your soul a spiral
the twine of energies
and then, dance some more-
in silence
eyes gently closed
your lashes the gateway
hands clasped
with the tiny bird
of hope promised between
your palms, dance-
your heels, your toes
planted in the living soil
of the planet, dance-
with wind in your hair
love, clearly, dwells here
and compassion, goodness, goodness!-
and harmonious surrender
your core sways
like luminous blossoms on the breeze
and you, you dazzling, utmost,
effervescent beings,
just- you-dance.
