The Dancers Dance

I watched her dance
beneath the dark sky.
She was beautiful in her thin
veiled gown flowing in the breeze.

Her eyes sparkled in the moonlight
giving the voyeur a glimpse of beauty.
She was alone and danced alone
but there was something magical in her heart.

She held a vision of someone
deep within and gave him her all.
It was possible there was no other thought
in her head but self enjoyment in freedom.

Whatever her reasoning she stood out like a
princess in a court of unseen opponents.
I shall fall asleep tonight with her in my mind
dancing the dance of her desires.

I shall return to watch her
again should I be so lucky.
Someday I may find out
what her dancing was really for.
