Girls dance on the sidewalk spin jump in free performance urban space of joy in strokes of summer color under a blue and white painted sky restorative rays of heat that melt away reserve like a hill of chocolate fudge Girls break the protocol of distance sugared embraces losing their grip in giggles giddy, in full steam fireworks in the recesses of wide eyes for school doesn't resume till September Poem composed July 15, 2021

Enjoyed the movement, the way you evoked the senses, and the plot twist at the end. It's nice to see kids playing together with the freedom that should have.
