Rosy Ballerina ©

your eyes shimmer like weeping stars
on a blue October,
lady, oh lady,
prominent your hair like a robins crest.
winter flower winter flower
with your rosy frosted face,
winter flower winter flower
my darkened eyes dance
with your ballerina feet,
winter flower winter flower
like a low lit candle sweeping shadows meet.
