dancer (for you)

^{Indian horse-chestnut – 29/11/2021}

if you
would like to see
me
dance

just wait . . .

the wind will
blow

I will
shimmer
on my branch

and then . . .

and then
I will
let go

ballerina
in the breeze

twirling
from
on high

and sailing
through
the air

the ground
is much too
close

but I will dance
the way
I know

and you
will follow

follow me
until
I fall

pick me up
for there
is more

throw me
again
into
the sky

and I will dance
around you

all the way
around
you

~
