From Water Jewels- Water Jewels Exquisite, sparkling Vibrant and spirited, stunning bundles of hypnotic energy skilled masters of imaginative water dance sporting dazzling color, swimming tirelessly with the strength of well-trained gymnasts they are graceful as they are muscular, creative as they are powerful the light plays against their vivid patterns, sunrays bouncing off smooth scales as they caress the water like shimmering sequins animated in a liquid realm, mesmerizing all who watch. From The Sound of Stillness- Egret Standing on spindle-straight legs she is sleek, slender snow-white statuesque Stepping softly in the shallows surveying her domain she is one with the water the sun the sky Sensitively seeking a sound a splash in silent sophistication she searches, stretching her neck scanning all that surrounds her Seductively she casts her spell, then sees her reflection silhouetted on the surface Her soliloquy is held secret, solitary and serious. She is strong. She endures the spans of stillness, and stays and stays and stays. |
