Poems and Haiku

She Wraps the Dance Around Her

she wraps the dance
around her
like rain
around the storm

on a summer afternoon

she wraps the dance
around her
like rain
around the eaves

lets her heart fall into step

she wraps the dance
around her
like rain
around the soul

with the rhythm of her feet

she wraps the dance
around her
like rain
around her coat

as she leaves the theater

she wraps the dance
around her
and takes it home

she wraps the dance
around her

she wraps the dance
around her
