I danced...

NafisaSB

I danced…

I danced with gay abandon

To the laughter of the breeze

As it caressed me softly

And whispered to the trees

 

The waves came edging closer

Mouths  a-foam  with glee

Boldly edging forward

Before they turned to flee

 

The leaves bent in a curtsy

The flowers swayed with grace

The butterflies flitted merrily

In that enchanted place

 

The birds were fast to pick up

The spirit in the air

Soaring in the sun shine

They twittered out their share

 

The crabs peered out slowly

Then caught up in the fun

Danced a crooked jig

Applauded by the sun

 

I left them to their laughter

Their carefree, merry ways

To return at will, whenever I pleased

To innocent fun-filled days

 

Whenever Nature frowns and gives

A dark and threatening glance

Remembrance of her Jekyll-side returns

And leaves me in a trance.
