Shashi Gupta

Id like to be a part of
A dance in the wind
Where colourful skirts
Get whipped and blown.
Id like to be a part of
A dance in the rain
Where with abandon
My very skin gets drenched.
Id like to dance
Under the stars and the moon
Create magic with the fairies
And paint myself silver.
In the woods
Id like to dance
With the bunnies and the deer
On tip toes so not to
Scare them away.
Id like to be
In the waves of the sea
Feel the tug and push
And dance on the seashore
With sand between my toes.
I ask for the pleasure of
My life being a dance
So I can skip past all sorrow
And be a happy spirit all day long.
