all the long blue night
pale feet of the silent girl
danced farewell to youth
there are so many ways we mark our circles
round the sun.
the changing seasons, cycles of the moon, tides waxing and waning.
for some eternity seems to stretch comfortably into forever,
others stand in awe grateful for one more moment.
the truth is no one knows.
so dance.
laugh.
cultivate compassion.
forgive.
encourage.
love fiercely and haiku forever..

I'm afraid I know that dance all too well, even though, obviously, I'm not a girl!

I'm the live in the moment and be grateful for each one type of person. Your haiku speaks volumes to me. Every phase of life should be a celebration!
