Starlit Dream

The lyre and moonlight cascading.
   Tri-dancer transposes shadow.
      On tiptoes, gracefully gliding,
The lyre and moonlight cascading.
   The artist’s pen twirling, shading
      His starlit dream…a stellar show.
The lyre and moonlight cascading
   Tri-dancer transposes shadow.

People like to dream, as though everythings are possible and obtainable, of course in their dreams. Chinese says you dream(daydreaming) in the day and you'll dream in the night. A great dream.

I have never seen a tri-dancer and it is highly probable that I never will, but Now I can picture one thanks to your talented pen, Kim. Thank you. Dance to Daylight, Gershon

The artist shows three of the same dancer. That is what I’m conveying here :)
