Joy (pub 05.26.13 and 12.19.12)

Joy

fragile leaves dance in the wind

uncaring of direction

delighting in movement

spiraling skyward

then floating gently down

softly touching ground.

I can see myself

arms raised as if in flight

a long, diaphanous gown

dancing alongside

carelessly

freely

joyously

heart lighter than air
