Dancing.
Atop the lake today splayed a dancing net
of flickering sparky diamonds
as sun and breeze played flashing duet
while surface teemed with gems.
Light having fun with liquid glass reflected
in myriads glints of its measure.
By the jiving mass of frenetic performance
sunbeams exposed stars
cast to dart swifter than normal.
Clouds loosed quivers of brilliant glitter
and sudden change-induced
taste made wet explode in shimmer.
Around million radiant winking jewels
silver flashed quickly to gilt
and for a while ripples made blindingly
wild offered gleams of play
on mirrored lake-face in cosmic light.
Then breezes died and sun
in hiding meant the dancing was done
