Image for the poem Clouds Above

Clouds Above

In the eyes I lost myself
unexpected twist of fate
perhaps blue or maybe brown
this depth of soul not yet revealed.

I know there is another self
inside the windows reflecting back
the gulf I wonder if I can breach
depths to plumb in our good time.

I soar as only birds may dare
when basking in the sun's delights
your eyes are my anchor point
in the clouds above the earth.

From these heights I wonder if
sight is true or illusion's gift
this narrative your gaze imparts
chapters written on my heart.

A Tumblr posting inspired me to write “Clouds Above”... that and a few of the gazes I've encountered during my years of dancing.
