BOUNCY AFTERNOONS

Bouncy afternoons make for giddy girls
White ribbons of flirting circle and swirl
Quick to prance and primp for the boys
Echoes of youth gather into a solid noise
Swishes of skirts and bangles of barrettes
Innocence roams where no one has regrets
Clicking of sneaks and a wink from the eye
Free the motion of ardor and they feel alive

[Dedicated to my young dance students]
