For Anna A Birthday greeting

People
you follow the sunflowers,
face uplifted to the light
spurning the dark, deceptive ground.
Rising on tiptoe
you soar to the light
like swallows in summertime
onwards and upwards
forgetting aching feet
gliding into an arabesque
then a leap of joy
a grand jêté
into the golden light
all griefs forgotten
for a few hours,
a day of birth
for dancing on and on…
from Wendie, with much love and many many thanks
