She danced with fluidity
Full of creativity
Down the bind
Of my mind
To adjectives hidden
Nouns spinning
Pirouetting through
Fantastical lands
Through tales of time
And shifting sands
Through a forest darkly
Lightly upon toes
Silhouetted by Ravens
In twilight's last throes
Weaving ballets from thoughts
To a symphony of verse
Bringing tragedy & love
And a spellbinding curse
Then she drifted like mist
To find sonnets anew
To hang from our thoughts
Like sweet morning dew.

A wonderful poem, Stephen! 🌷
As always, thank you for the comments, Keith, Graham ( I would look after her but Coopy's got her locked in the cellar!) And, Stephen, my teacher would be proud!
And thanks for the likes, Julie, Rudyard, Pete & Jimakos 🌈
You have widened my education once again, Stephen. Thanks.
I’ve got her locked in my cellar, Stephen.
I meet her most days at the check out of my local supermarket. She's a piece that one.
Thanks for this. It begs humour.
Keith
Clever piece Stephen. Look after her, she is notoriously promiscuous!

A double whammy Stephen, as the subject is accurately portrayed but also the scan of the poem brings the theme into the picture too. The almost surreal wording adds to the pleasure of the read.
