Dancing Flowers
We want to watch dancing flowers
Locks up my mind for many hours
Watch their rhythm, which way they sway
Sets my mental path every day
Catch those trips that spin round the sun
Lots more twirls before they're done
For luckless those whose music stops
Flowers reel on like spinning tops
Little fair in this scheme of things
In random swirls of whirling rings
Applause in darkness lets light show
These dancers make enjoyment glow
Look through the petals, see the shade
Feel the difference they have made
Were it only that we could see
How beautiful all lives can be
