Wingless Flight

Diamond hard, and rainbow splendored,
Hanging in the void suspended.
Thrill ye mortals at the sight,
Of her leaping, wingless flight.
In the fraction of a moments time,
Beauty's flight becomes sublime.
Of grace and gentle flowered things,
Majestic flight, bereft of wings.
Saw her poised, in the spotlights glow,
Saw her beauty dazzle so.
Thought of angels as I gazed,
At raptures flight, transfixed, amazed.
I thought about the many years,
All the pain and sweat and tears,
Before the unforgiving barre,
Shes come so very very far.
That I might see what true love brings,
In flight before me, bereft of wings.
Passion fade into the dark,
Having left your burning mark.
That I shall ever keep the sight,
Of beauty in its wingless flight,
Within my heart, to always treasure.
A grace apart, beyond all measure.
