sunrise in sunday

dancing on the beach for a wedding, sunday, september 16, 2007, OSA 152, sunrise, south beach, miami @ 3rd street & ocean drive

under star sirius and
planet venus
dark ocean waves crash
white into shore
the moving bodies converging
into one more

i am dancing the sun up
into sky
my hips moving widely
across horizons

inside the dance of eternity
i traverse the same waves
that brought my ancestors to this land
the water is blue
despite broken bodies that bled red

still i dance in the constant rhythm
of renewal
of hope
giving thanks for the waves that
replenish worn soles
and water the living seeds
