Gliding Style (Seventh Heaven)

Move me softly like Tai Chi Harmonize my limbs and let them glide with style Connect my body and soul Focus my mind with heavens touch of pure grace Create in me a balance Uplift my head and coordinate my steps As the swan flies—let me glide © Joseph, 10/21/07 © All Rights Reserved The form is 7/11/7/11/7/11/7. The total syllable count is 61. The first line has seven syllables, second eleven, third seven, fourth eleven, fifth seven, sixth eleven, and seventh seven. Rhyming is optional; however, it’s a plus.
