Dance Party In Summer

dance party of summer

blue waves rock and roll
 seashore tides shimmy and shake ~
  sunlight tap dances

white clouds pirouette
 delphiniums deep plies ~
  ebb tides grand jettes

meadows slowly waltz
 forests polka with raindrops ~
  breezes minuet

willow trees tango
 sunflowers skip jump and jive ~
  moon does the hustle

butterflies slow dance
 ladybugs groove in two-step ~
  surfside twists and shouts

shooting stars moon walk
 tide pools salsa dancing ~
  birch trees swing and sway

dandelions stroll
 fields of daisies jitterbug ~
  long days zydeco

swift rivers rumba
 rapids mambo in quickstep ~
  starshine at the hop
