Puppets
puppets dancing without a guiding hand
Dancing to a silent band
Bowing to each other for a moment so brief
Lost was my grief
So beautiful is belief
The little puppet boy and girl
Around and around they did twirl
Alive to only each others heart
Alive only when all others did part
Dancing together during the night
Such a beautiful sight
Each smooth move never breaking the flow
Wishing I could make them dance so
Day starts to break
Maybe I start to wake
To the floor the puppets slowly fall.
I pick them up put them back on the wall
