His Two Dancers he would see
~ visual poetry of portrait ~
primal body in art form..portal to the soul.
Toes in finest satin, flying time and space,
tap the shoe, curve of the arch, through pain,
~ only beauty shows ~ for these strains of passion.
Arms of grace ~ Art in motion ~
Perceive the music, symmetry of the foot,
demure yet sensual.
Breathe for your heart, Release for your soul.
~ Ballet with Me ~ Courtesy for the Roses ~
