here it was (the dream) (2004)

here it was (the dream):

this woman dancer –

she danced:

strong
elongated
arms astretched

pirouetting through the thin dry
spaces of rain

like a bird flying low in a forest
never getting wet

it was raining rather hard:

she flitted
flung
like a wisp
of silk scarf

balletic but a blur

& the sound:

was forest rain.
