The Divine Dancer



Why are thou like this?
So perfect in every step ,
Thy movements personifying
A passion not known before

Yet thy has not done justice to thyself
and the people who aspire to reach you
If you close the eyes and concentrate
at that one point in the universe that
makes you happy then you will have attained
the beauty and grace of a dancer divine
