MIRRORS OF LIFE
DANCE WINGS
SO THERE SHE DANCED TO HER HEART'S DELIGHT
IN THE HYPNOTIC SPELL OF A MOON'S SOMBER NIGHT
AND LEFT THIS MEMORY IMPRINTED IN ME
AND MADE ME LONG, LIKE HER, TO BE FREE!
SO I CAUGHT ME UP IN DREAM'S WILD GLANCE
AND ACROSS THAT SKY MY FEET DID DANCE
AND MY HEART CAPTURED STEPS I NEVER KNEW
WHEN I SAW THAT GOD WAS DANCING TOO.
AND ANGELS CAME FROM THE HEAVENS WIDE
AND DANCED RIGHT THERE ALONG MY SIDE,
AND EVERY WHERE A STAR DID SHINE
WAS A RHYTHM OF LOVE FROM THIS HEART OF MINE!
THE GRAND OLD MOON SHE JUST SMILED
AS SHE DANCED WITH THE SUN IN JOY GONE WILD
AND AS FOR ME' I AWOKE AND FOUND
THAT I WAS LYING ON THE GROUND
THE LADY OF DANCE ABOVE ME STOOD
AND WHIRLED IN TIME TO MY HEART'S GOOD
AND THIS POEM GIVES PROOF FROM MY WHEEL CHAIR
THAT SOMETHING IN ME DANCED WITH HER UP THERE
AND CAUGHT ME UP BEYOND OUR TIME
AND WROTE IT'S IMPRESSION ON THIS HEART OF MINE
AND CHANGED ME INTO SOMETHING FOR ALL TO SEE
AND GAVE ME DANCE WINGS LIKE HERS TO BE FREE.
