Let Us

Naked
in pride
Beneath the music

Let’s
 fall upon our backs
Until the new blooms
Return
 
Let’s...
And dance
And not move
Beneath the music.


 Hands in chests.

Let’s...
With the nightingales
That declare and admit
 they fly -like I.
And on branches rest
To place a new  nest.

Let’s...
Beneath the music…

For
There is nothing else to live
But this

And the chain,
That joins the clock
To the hours,
Will break.

Let’s...

Today
For yesterday is too late.

"Let us"...is good to be not alone too much. I love "dancing and not moving", "music floating above", "stop the clock!!!"

So fly today, little girl, yesterday is not.

And I like apples!

This is very well handled. The rhymes are deft, not intrusive, the line breaks great. The ending is excellent too.

AKA Tom Eliot:

It felt like i was being whisked away.
Waltzing maybe?
I felt a breeze any ways...
Power with grace

Oh sweet friend, I feel the music as my body gently sways with your song...beautiful, beautiful, beautiful...cease the moment, forget the day!

There is only now. You illustrated that so well--beautifully, sensuously done.

yesterday is too late, you got your audience with that phrase. You got me. I am still wondering, yesterday's too late...we only have today? don't go back to the past?
Live this passion today is what I get out of it. and that is indeed what we should do
