Naked Ballerina

.

  Under the cool Summer’s rain

      fluttering as if a dryad’s 
                  pixie
    ‘mongst the Oak and fern
       cooling from the heat
            and beaming 
                    me

              eve’s ballet
          turned tremulous
            ‘pon mine me

Your poem reminded me of the movie Eve's Bayou, A 1997 movie. Love the rain, thank you for reading my Sin City poem. I wrote it after seeing a commercial on TV. Have a good day :)

I've read this one a while back before... very interesting...Perfect word choice... you've got the fascinating imagery and the most titillating words to describe such crazy moments. It's fun to fantasize on your meaning. Always, Laura

James, a dreamy, magical write, a fluttering 7 and thanks for visiting my poem, I had to get low ....yes it's a true story that happened to me when I was young and knew everything and my parents knew nothing in my opinion, and they never asked me why but just took their lost little bird back into the nest. I heard recently that George died of cancer , after all he did to me my heart still hurt ...
