Paper Heart

I love how you dance
Pirouette across my page
Delicately take my hand
Glide into my soul
Gravity cannot hold you
Neither can this paper heart


For Dr. Rams Choka contest.

A great image, Richard! Having a dancing heart, even for a little while is better than never having one at all! Reminds me of when I'm trying to write a poem and that perfect word flirting with my mind escapes me!

This one stayed with me like a fragrance that lingers, when you find yourself standing all alone in a room. Simply beautiful my friend. I had the pleasure of catching up on so many of your poems I have missed this month. Always such a joy! Hope you are smiling!
