Notes About The Poem

Maiden's Swayed Movements

With such feminine flamboyancy
this maiden sways in breathtaking  movements
flashing, flitting, flaming a sweet minuet--
beneath a mural of moonlight’s alchemy,
her flared gown fair as sequined feathers
that midway, in birdsong's  sultry  melody,
her flight  of  fancy floats on my garden- floor
and like a magical sylph in tints of magenta,
she mingles with blooms on lawn's mainstage— 
oh this femme fatale;  a Mayflower, 
mantling the pageant of summer's first  festival!
