violet starkness

dance Robin dance
although we see you
dance, sweet darling dance
this is your scene
here violet starkness
has apposite voices that swing you
pray safe with no restraint
no one will speak
when waves of haze
in worlds apart
have seized you
dance wild with thoughts
of what inside you sings

dance Robin dance
a floor beneath you
dance, darling dance
no walls of defeat
the heavens wide enough
for all your dreams
so dance, Robin dance
attend your needs

at last, Robin asks
how have things been
at last, Robin asks
what are my needs
and tries to celebrate
when in between
brief moments won in wars
of hearts own peace

dance Robin dance
like no one sees you
dance Robin dance
your moves are real
less reverent hours
may know you unrevealed
so dance, Robin dance
the way you feel

dance Robin dance
like someone needs you
let child imagination
move your feet
when still, composed
fulfilled, at your own peace
please take an offered place
among our queens
