Audacity
Amzing poetry by a talented writer. Please read and enjoy.
No excuse for found courage
I step bold from your shadow
Audacious in my demand for light
Stamping a tattoo on hard ground
With each lift and fall bells jangle
Hips sway and command a rhythm
Meant for me but beat in another time
Chains loosen; fall away to red dirt
Skirts lift and swirl, blown by warmed winds
Swept aside by my own hands
Making room for the roar and passion
Head thrown back, uncaring of the watchers
Breath drawn across desert parched lips
The bells locked on ankles as a claim ring
With each step, each movement they plea
Clarion call of my captive heart
To another unseen, unknown
To quench the fire left burning

Thank you John, it is very much appreciated. I figured out why I was missing you, somehow I stopped getting notifications. I have now fixed it (again).
