Mask

 Fling your red scarf faster and faster, dancer.
It is summer and the sun loves a million green leaves, masses of green.
Your red scarf flashes across them calling and a-calling.
The silk and flare of it is a great soprano leading a chorus Carried along in a rouse of voices reaching for the heart of the world.
Your toes are singing to meet the song of your arms: Let the red scarf go swifter.
Summer and the sun command you.
