There she stood, balanced
Graceful even in stillness
Then began to dance

I imagine myself standing on the sidelines, waiting for the dance to begin…

Yes, I wish there was an “after” shot. But I guess less is more, right? Your entries were both wonderful, thanks

I like “graceful even in stillness” – love it!
Feb 22, 2012 @ 09:06:41
Thanks! I highly enjoyed your dancing words as well

I can sense her anticipation – nice Haiku. Thank you
Feb 22, 2012 @ 12:05:30
Just perfect!

Well thank you very much

I can see her in your word imagery … she is graceful and poised … waiting to begin! Very nicely done ~~ Here is my Day 22.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 21:51:40
Thanks! I see you went a very different route–dark but delightful
Feb 22, 2012 @ 13:01:12
Very nice…specially the second line ~
Feb 22, 2012 @ 21:54:21
Thanks! That line took a few tries (guess my thoughts wouldn’t keep still)
Feb 22, 2012 @ 21:31:26
Yeah, I like the way you projected this forward to the next shot.
Feb 22, 2012 @ 21:54:55
Thanks! Would love to see that next shot–I’m sure it would be a grand one

‘let her’ ~ beautiful………….
Feb 23, 2012 @ 22:33:50
Most certainly! No one should stop her

Now I’m left waiting for the dance to begin. I suppose I’ll just have to use my imagination.
I’m new to your blog and like what I see.

Glad I could convey a sense of longing! And yes, I’m sure you could imagine a beautiful dance. Thanks for visiting–I like your blog as well (though blogspot still doesn’t like me) and feel free to look around
