The Fairy Dance


The Fairy Dance

The fairies are dancing — how nimbly they bound!

   They flit o'er the grass tops, they touch not the ground;

Their kirtles of green are with diamonds bedight,

   All glittering and sparkling beneath the moonlight.

Hark, hark to their music! how silvery and clear —

   'Tis surely the flower-bells that ringing I hear, —

The lazy-wing'd moth, with the grasshopper wakes,

   And the field-mouse peeps out, and their revels partakes.


How featly they trip it! how happy are they

   Who pass all their moments in frolic and play,

Who rove where they list, without sorrows or cares,

   And laugh at the fetters mortality wears!


But where have they vanish'd? — a cloud 's o'er the moon,

   I'll hie to the spot, — they'll be seen again soon —

I hasten — 'tis lighter, — and what do I view? —

   The fairies were grasses, the diamonds were dew.


And thus do the sparkling illusions of youth

   Deceive and allure, and we take them for truth;

Too happy are they who the juggle unshroud,

   Ere the hint to inspect them be brought by a cloud.


Meaning of unusual words:

kirtles = dress, gown

bedight = adorned

featly = cleverly, smartly

list = choose

Ah Paris.....


 Paris Holds the Key (to Your Heart)

Song by Bernadette Peters and Jonathan 


Welcome, my friends, to Paris.

Here, have a flower on me.

Forget where you're from.

You're in France!

Children, come!

I'll show you that French joie de vivre

Paris holds the key to your hear.

And all of Paris plays a part.

Just stroll two by two

Down what we call "la rue"

And soon all Paris

Will be singing to you!

Ooh La La

Ooh La La

Ooh La La!

Paris holds the key to l'amour

And not even Freud knows the cure.

There's love in the air

At the Follies Begere

The French have it down to an art!

Paris hold the key to your heart!

When you're feeling blue

Come to Le Moulin.

When your heart says don't,

The French say do!

When you think you can't

You'll find you can can!

Everyone can can can!

You can can can too!

Whee!

Whee!

Whee!

Paris hold the key to her past.

Yes, Princess, I've found you at last.

No more pretend,

You'll be gone,

That's the end

Paris hold the key

To your heart!

You'll be très jolie and so smart

Come dance through the night

And forget all your woes

The city of light

Where a rose is a rose

And one never knows what will start!

Paris

Holds the key

To her

Heart!

Ooh La La!

Ooh La La!

Oh What a Beautiful Morning....

 

Oh What A Beautiful Morning

Song by Gordon MacRae


There's a bright, golden haze on the meadow

There's a bright, golden haze on the meadow

The corn is as high as an elephant's eye

And it looks like it's climbing clear up to the sky

Oh, what a beautiful mornin'

Oh, what a beautiful day

I've got a beautiful feelin'

Everything's goin' my way

All the cattle are standin' like statues

All the cattle are standin' like statues

They don't turn their heads as they see me ride by

But a little brown maverick is winkin' her eye

Oh, what a beautiful mornin'

Oh, what a beautiful day

I've got a beautiful feelin'

Everything's goin' my way

All the sounds of the earth are like music

All the sounds of the earth are like music

The breeze is so busy it don't miss a tree

And ol' weepin' willer is laughin' at me

Oh, what a beautiful mornin'

Oh, what a beautiful day

I've got a beautiful feelin'

Everything's goin' my way

Oh, what a beautiful day...

Lost in Contemplation.....

 

An Interruption To Contemplation


Opening a book,

started with the first line.

A skillful drift and there I look,

into the ocean of fantasy, fine.


An old thought,

followed by ideas brightly lit up.

Gates to the future bought.

Contemplation all lost, in agitation I gulp.


People and places,

memories sweet and sour, countless phases.

A recap of life's chronological chases,

the mind races.


The Lord's wisdom,

taunts the lord himself.

A never ending game, losing authority's kingdom,

like to a damsel, a swain's self.


Apoorva Raghunandan

I am a Flower Child.....

 

Flower Child

Flower child, where did you come from?


Your hands are bigger than mine, stronger.


They are seldom still. Digging in the dirt, stringing beads


on a necklace, snapping your fingers to a Beatles song—


you are always moving forward, dragging the past


behind you like a streamer. You are happier barefoot,


dancing in the grass, than women


wearing designer shoes, jumping in a pile of money.


Pierced and tattooed, silver bracelets jingling,


you are as different from me as North


is to South. Yet wherever you go, my heart,


like the needle on a compass, follows.

Dance in the Garden....

 

Belly Dancer

BY DIANE WAKOSKI

Can these movements which move themselves

be the substance of my attraction?

Where does this thin green silk come from that covers my body?

Surely any woman wearing such fabrics

would move her body just to feel them touching every part of her.


Yet most of the women frown, or look away, or laugh stiffly.

They are afraid of these materials and these movements

in some way.

The psychologists would say they are afraid of themselves, somehow.

Perhaps awakening too much desire—

that their men could never satisfy?

So they keep themselves laced and buttoned and made up

in hopes that the framework will keep them stiff enough not to feel

the whole register.

In hopes that they will not have to experience that unquenchable

desire for rhythm and contact.


If a snake glided across this floor

most of them would faint or shrink away.

Yet that movement could be their own.

That smooth movement frightens them—

awakening ancestors and relatives to the tips of the arms and toes.


So my bare feet

and my thin green silks

my bells and finger cymbals

offend them—frighten their old-young bodies.

While the men simper and leer—

glad for the vicarious experience and exercise.

They do not realize how I scorn them;

or how I dance for their frightened,

unawakened, sweet

women.

I am so happy to be blogging for Moth & Moon!!! I sooo love the skins so you know this is just to first of more posts to come hehehe stay tuned ^-~
