A Faery Dance



she rises from the mists..
nephrite emerging from the seas
a sensual delight
a promise of what could be

each movement an invitation
a silent offering beckoning you in
the light of the moon
caressing alabaster skin

the sounds of the night
creating a song
for the fairy sprite
to dance along

alone in the clearing
tiny feet do fly
her dance a tribute
to the midnight sky

slender arms reach high
searching for the light
beseeching the gods
this creature of the night

the whirling twirling dervish
a ritual of the dance
a pagan offering
a prayer perchance

and so she flies
alone in the mist
a twirl, a swirl
a dance a twist

tossing back her head
letting laughter soar
a musical sound
a valient roar..

what promise is this
this pagan delight
this one small dancer
a decadent sight

alone in the mist
she dances
a promise of hope
of tomorrows chances

she dances until the
evening ends
returning to the mist
tomorrow to dance again
