Unbroken under great weight
Bending to its task...

Fred Astaire,
Danced with flair!
Graceful and lithe was he,
As he danced into celebrity.

Lifting your lush head,
Lovely and light, lingering in the sun.
Laugh little lad, as you lift one....

Lithe, graceful,
light as air

In last confessions of death 
As flames of crimson,
Draped their souls in lithe petals 
Of a black, gold-lined lotus....

Decayed for decades
What happened?
To my lithe thoughts
And deft digits

That could churn
Heaviness into brevity
And paltry pursuits
Into wee nuances...

Lovely and lithe, delightful indeed.
A wisp of a thing, a tiny little light might.
A pixie, a faerie, a pretty sight on this night....

fragile
dainty
a survivor

lithe
light
lovely

she peeks above the grasses
showing her loveliness
an orchid!

bulging with a variety of hues of blues
and lovely lively lithe pinks and whites
quintessential sunset flowed across the valley
mesmerized, I took out my sandwich and stared as I ate....

No more gorging, that's not good for our frame
Getting lithe as a fairy
Singing like a canary
Happy as poop I'm no longer shamed...

she arrived light, lithe, luxuriously lightning-like
her wings were blazing; I felt honored and humbled...

Invigorating and joyful, like a wee lithe fawn
Pirouettes and pliés

Her hips move with every twist
Shimmering frame, lissome belly 
Slender and lithe, slithers like jelly
Looks so sweet on celluloid
A mischievous smile she carries
This Indian Cabaret dancer...

Masquerade dancer
lifted into the ether
light and lithe

Masquerade dancer
jealous of his partner
wanting to be wanton

Masquerade dancers
hiding secrets from each other
trusting no one...

So invigorating and joyful, like a lithe wee fawn
Pirouettes and pliés
Like a joyful ballet
My troubles and strife are suddenly gone...

in
reluctant
teardrops
plop 
visions
of my field
of dreams
a bloody
track
of cinders
where

this 
lonely race
become
my requiem...
