poetry of the foot.

Standard

how will she dance with only one shoe

all i can picture

is that tiny ballerina

in the music box

dancing

around and around and around

up on her toes

forever

on just one foot.

“dancing is the poetry of the foot.”
-john dryden-

will you play?

Standard

grandies perform a grand ballet

children don’t say, 

“i’ve had a hard day, can we talk?’

they say,

“will you play with me?”
