The Underwater Dance (gold)

Missing image
In gentle sway with grace they float
through oceans deep in flutter's freedom
glorying in togetherness
dancing in unison and harmony.

This ballet sways in tune of chorus
pirouettes to reach perfection's peak
entwined their essences move as one
while exploring movements of elegance.

Entrancing all the dais is theirs
in motion they cavort in rhythm
clear passage so the stage is set
sweeping beauty captivates the eye.

This dance of grace is mesmerizing
subtley they move with delicacy
no beginning or end to this hypnotic style
in radiance distinction flies.

Capturing glimmers of nature's brilliance
flamboyance warms the coldest scene
in true dedication this ballet plays
as all become entrapped in excellence

    Okay, now I remember when I'd read your poetry before.

    I entered Blue Rew's contest, too. I wrote one about a jellyfish ballet. Congratulations on the bronze! Blue has been on my favorite's list for a while. I could read her work all day. There's a poet on this site who was stung by a jellyfish. Talk about painful!

    You write beautifully. I look forward to reading many more.
