Something Like a Dance

Deep blue 
of the morning 
         calls 
          us 
  Have you noticed 
the clouds overhead? 
   Sparkling eyes 
signal laughter 
growing in our hearts 
as light pours down 
from the sky 
we are enraptured 
   by the dance of 
  the seasons 
       which is ours to treasure 
everyday and forever 
Somewhere, off in the distance 
      a young person is weeping 
for a lost cause 
An incredible dream 
    which has gone up in smoke

I love how your dance of the seasons merges with the dance of life...while one season warms another cools, when one person smiles another cries.

you show sorrow with joy at the same time, the state of our world, and it is always interesting how you capture it, matt.
