His dancing water lily

the deep arch in her back
bending only for your eyes
long slender legs adorning
dazzling reds of sleepy sun
water reflecting a silhouette
silk soft like butterfly wings
his dancing waterlily, his love
trees purr to her able splendor
knowing he will be ever tender
with each move, his heart surrenders

      2. Thank you Tim. I always wanted to be a ballerina. So beautiful to watch their beautiful bodies bending and moving like it is no effort. Was behind stage once when a bunch of ballerinas were coming of stage and they were sucking air. Thanks Tim big hugs to you my friend. ❤️
