The Day I Learned to Dance
It was one of those
Early spring days
The sun gave warmth
To my heart
And the wind offered a chill
To my bones,
I didn’t need a jacket
It was one of those
Days after I splashed
Frivolously in the skies tears
In my golashes, regardless
Of the fact that the outfit
I had meticulously spent hours picking out
Was drenched.
It was one of those
Days in which I knew
Why the birds sang
Why the squirrels frolicked
It was one of those
Days I wanted to cry out;
Verbalize
My utter and complete joy
Yet
It wasn’t just
One of those days
It was the day
I learned to dance
With the birds
Song and the squirrels
Prance around
My feet;
I was a mere
Mockingbird, mimicking
The beat of
Nature
Letting go
Without a care
Like the
Birds, and the
Squirrels.
