You found me
simplicity,
harmonium,
quiet ***** humming
slow,
softness,
starts,
and the violin follows along

And you grow
oh so quickly
and my smile joins you
my body
my toes are tapping
and a man walks sturdy
stepping on your beat
with a smooth nonchalance

And I am lifted
my arms raising,
reaching,
and my legs
weightless

Enveloped in song
warmth,
lilting,
socks slipping on a wooden floor
clapping along
as your voice grows

Strings thrum
and my bones with them
and as you fade I slow
my twirling gentles
but my smile remains,
breathless
cheeks red and eyes
glowing.
