Poem - Clouds Above
Jun. 23rd, 2016 11:04 pmA Tumblr posting inspired me to write “Clouds Above”... that and a few of the gazes I've encountered during my years of dancing.
Clouds Above
In the eyes I lost myself
unexpected twist of fate
perhaps blue or maybe brown
this depth of soul not yet revealed.
I know there is another self
inside the windows reflecting back
the gulf I wonder if I can breach
depths to plumb in our good time.
I soar as only birds may dare
when basking in the sun's delights
your eyes are my anchor point
in the clouds above the earth.
From these heights I wonder if
sight is true or illusion's gift
this narrative your gaze imparts
chapters written on my heart.
