dance under the moonlight: a short poem

By: Dechen Tamang

​spin a little and dance;
hum to the breeze
and sway with the wind;
twirl your skirts afloat-
fear not the worry
and for a moment,
let go.
feel the wind
caress your skin;
do not fear anxiety.
it shall arrive
and it shall go,
but for now,
you shall dance
and above,
the moon will shine
silver and
glow against the
backdrop of
deep velvet blue.
she will drip, waxy
shiny pearls that
glitter around her-
they twinkle
and glimmer
surround her with love-
surround you with warmth
because darling,
i am enamoured
and
i would gift you
the moon
​and the
 s
t
  a
r
   s
​would fall
to make us
​one
