The Planets -Jupiter

Robust and timid sounds echoes and repeats 
diminishing to a small vibrato of waves
that encircles with each rythm
becoming louder and strounger
to vanished to be recalled on tiny hands
displaying fear and sad stories of
a sailor and his travels on his mistress
though he misses his wife
but continues his voyage of
what
he has already forgotten
but the small hands are playful and vibrant
as it tags along other small young hands
that come forward dancing and parading
smiles and rustling legs in the meadows
legs that grow with every passing wind
showing muscle of strength that have been
measured to hold up a stone body
when it becomes heavy in the world
but a light head was given also
to follow floating dreams
