Delightful the Gait

The girl in me pirouettes without care,
allowing hips' gait on the blue of rocks
as lush wings reel and orbit from nowhere...
O  my toes click,  a magic that unlocks
a host of robins slip-sliding away
in a meadow which airbrushes the night;
when birdsong echoes low, " be young...good day!"
Till finally, my jives end with delight.
