The Dance
by
Lee Rector

Then dance,
sweet princess.
Spin and prance.
Spring forth in
sheer utterance
Into the arms
of your creator.
Entrance,
dream weaver.
Remembrance.
White laced
gloves of gems incense
Icicles
freezing time till later.

For once on
pointed toes
Did he but lift
your eagle wings
to glory.
Like diamonds
drenched in spotlight
Did the sparkle
of your happy show.
Eyes met and
paused in love.
Strings rumbled
low in expectation.
Address,
embrace, swirl in grace
Above the peak
of excitation.

Commence,
plié,
Experience the
majesty of audience
In silent stare
awaiters.
For all the
pain it took to paint
illusions trace
Is worth the
memories,
So dance, sweet
princess,
Dance!
