Short Pirouetting Poems

Pirouetting leaves,
Wafting to the water's edge:
Pizzicato breeze....

Pirouetting leaf,
Classical dance with the wind:
Ballet of the Fall....

Whirling through the grove, 
Dancing in the changing winds:
Pirouetting leaf....

    pirouetting 'cross the moon

  Cherubs curled her tresses
    wound 'round a golden spoon...

windblown tap dancers
pirouetting percussionists
rollicking raindrops

fantasia of clouds
                 pirouetting across skies
                 toe shoes, blue in hue

I listened
It had started
A soft crinkling
Of dry leaves
Pirouetting
Across the field
Leaping into the wind
Spiraling sails
Adrift
On a sea of blue
I bid them
adieu...

Chilled air swirling ‘round,
Snowflakes pirouetting down,
Fireplaces giving warmth-

Horn of plenty full,
Stuffed turkey and pumpkin pie,
Memories in the making-

We
are
strolling
by moonlight.
Soft silver shadows 
glow on an inky blue ocean 
I love how they sparkle and glisten like tiny stars
Pirouetting gracefully as prima ballerinas with the ocean as their stage...

Fifteen frenzied fowls with frilly frightening feathered frocks
Pirouetting, prancing, preening against granite rocks
Generating elongated,  lively lollygagging locks,
Strutting around in their striped chicken-like socks....

~~~~~Spring Spectrum~~~~ 

       warm jasmine scented fingers
       pirouetting across my lips
       delectable love bloom, you
       magical spring, impromptu

In autumn as trees disrobe
Pirouetting falling leaves
Reveal their hidden glamour 
Natures bare branch charm.

flurries of soft snow
pirouetting gently down ~

A cloud of scarlet and crimson petals
Spill down from above,
Pirouetting  delicately
As they clasp the breeze
In a silent, fluttering waltz.
Drips of colour stain sherbet white snow,
Blossoming chaotically
As the legion of scandal - red petals
Pour relentlessly down.
Flowers for the living....

Each time that I see her
A switch is stimulated within me
So arcane yet freakishly alluring
And like a tiger hunting its prey

I chased her pirouetting shadow ever so enthusiastically
The taste of it quite addicting in a hopelessly romantic sense
Tirelessly becoming the axis on which my beliefs lie...

As nights draw in, the silver harvest moon
Shines boldly through defenceless, naked trees
And pirouetting leaves will settle soon,
For winter’s riding on the autumn breeze.

The woman
That pirouettes and pirouettes,
Pirouetting as she sweats
And pirouette amongst the reveries
Of men, ---
Underneath the strobe lights
Their libidos
Are great black swans
Against the bloodied vanilla sky.
In the moment
They bark crimson pyre.
The woman, ---
Pirouetting as she sweats,
Young men....

A lovely vision caught my eye

A pirouetting butterfly,

It climbed a sunbeam as it danced 

As in the air it turned and pranced,

In my mind it seemed to be

A little ballet... just for me.

We sit at the waters edge comforting a sweet embrace.
It stills our hearts and breaths to see the dolphins play.
Synchronized arches of dance in the air and back down.
Nose first into the sea and back up again breaking surf.
Flair of beauty, impressive moves, pirouetting from the sea.
They're awe-inspiring masters of their water ballet display....

Nature- 
"In all things of nature there is something of the marvelous."  Aristole


I watch them rise on a warm zephyr breeze
like pirouetting ballerinas
spinning and twirling in mid air
in white gossamer tutus. 
Small dandelion clocks
are parachuting
onto the ground -
nature’s way
to spread
seeds

Last rainy day Bobby's dancing observation
About umbrellas seemed mystical revelation

Winds might have made bouncing umbrellas
Through four year old eyes look like funny fellas

Or a "Brella Ballet" pirouetting
On point like tops spinning

And Singin' in the Rain
Could be an accurate refrain

When I see him again
I'll ask him to explain...

Palatial...
Zephyrs spring tide 
Winds gently blowing in
Greeting the dawn; elegant 
Twilights sweet farewell  
As colourful banners sway
Amid its summer breeze kiss
A chorus lines reflection
Gazing about this, golden
Pristine pond lovely ballerina's
Pirouetting atop these perfect 
Waters preparing to grace 
Poetics mirrored stage...
Her sunsets encore....
