Fifth Position















I’ll dance lightly on tepid glass
with you melted fifth position.
Your arms long, smooth, as gilded wings
I’ll slight embrace your poise sun.

A phoenix ray of squint ballet
you warmed the cold solstice
that hung briefly upon the air.
A mid- winter’s preface.

A ballad form for One Stop Poetry

    might melt!

  6. I don't know much about ballet, but this was lyrical and light as any steps they take, Jerry.
