Dawns Dancers

A Grace &Souladareatease collab.

 

Dancing the edge of the light

within shadows of the dark

their each step, beats free

with the sound once lonely heart

now glowing sparks, twine time

the songs play, softly

 

Songs like beating wings of dove

Fluttering against the winds of time

Against cold nights it travels forth

Towards afar and then beyond

Traverse time as yet unknown

Knocks on door, as yet unopened

 

Sounds that serenade rounds carry couple

Cards in a deck together shuffle

making a break in their way

lips coo on the breeze

Lovers’ lavish lattice layered longing

staking places, they drive nails home

 

Songs of yearnings keep on yet

Encircling the gold loop

Of bronze and gold

On slender finger holds

Promises of forever

Staked on little coloured cards

 

To these shapes, tomorrow’s dream

may land of Nod

Spill out upon real,

giving the ghosts chance

back to living

Peace be worthy, infinite days

Love the use of alliteration and the melody is swaying like the duality of the dancers in this line.
"Songs like beating wings of dove

Against cold nights it travels forth

I love the description of time travel! so much mystery in these verses. I am not well versed enough to comprehend or clutch all of it, but I can feel it Dancing in front of me like a ghost in air filled with powder as soon as you see it... you don't :D

Thank You for the read and Kind comments, such time spent pondering is humbling and appreciated---stardust indeed falls (its the old call and response way...to words of promises living the cold alone now and looking to the unknown tomorrows borne of the promises)
